Eli Lilly sues two pharmacies making copycat Zepbound, Mounjaro

  • Eli Lilly filed lawsuits on Tuesday against Strive Pharmacy and Empower Clinic Services for selling unapproved tirzepatide products.
  • These lawsuits arose after the FDA clarified its stance and began enforcing regulations against compounded GLP-1 drugs.
  • Lilly alleges the pharmacies falsely advertise personalized versions of its drugs, Mounjaro and Zepbound, while mass-producing them.
  • Lilly claims the pharmacies' products are not clinically tested and falsely suggest they are safer or more effective; Zepbound costs $1,000 monthly.
  • These lawsuits test Lilly's ability to combat compounding pharmacies and could set a precedent for Novo Nordisk and other manufacturers.
