GLP-1 Drug Shortages and Compounding

IPD has released a new podcast episode, “GLP-1 Drug Shortages and Compounding," where Alyssa Guest, PharmD, discusses the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) drugs and how interest in weight loss, viral social media posts, celebrity endorsements, illegitimate compounding, and drug shortages have all impacted access to GLP-1s.

Key topics include the significant shortages of GLP-1 drugs like Wegovy, Zepbound, and Ozempic, the rise of drug compounding as a response to these shortages, regulatory challenges and safety concerns with compounded GLP-1 drugs, and more.
