It’s not, however, the only drugmaker to be making a splash in the weight-loss drug space. Eli Lilly (LLY) has its own medicines, Mounjaro and Zepbound, the latter which just recently became available at US pharmacies. Even though drugmakers have been working on weight-loss drugs for years, “it really does feel like this time it’s different for obesity drugs,” Morningstar Director of Equity Strategy Damien Conover tells Yahoo Finance. Conover says Novo and Lilly will “dominate” the obesity drug market over the next couple of years, though there will eventually be more competition that will force prices lower.<\/p><p>ThirdBridge Global Sector Lead for Healthcare Lee Brown argues that eventually “it’s going to be harder and harder for payers to push back” against paying for these drugs given the longer-term benefits they can provide.<\/p><p>About Yahoo Finance:<\/p><p>Yahoo Finance provides free stock ticker data, up-to-date news, portfolio management resources, comprehensive market data, advanced tools, and more information to help you manage your financial life.<\/p><p>– Get the latest news and data at finance.yahoo.com<\/p><p>– Download the Yahoo Finance app on Apple (<a href=\"https:\/\/apple.co\/3Rten0R\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/apple.co\/3Rten0R<\/a>) or Android (<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3t8UnXO\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/bit.ly\/3t8UnXO<\/a>)<\/p><p>– Follow Yahoo Finance on social:<\/p><p>X: <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/YahooFinance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">http:\/\/twitter.com\/YahooFinance<\/a><\/p><p>Instagram: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/yahoofinance\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/yahoofinance\/?hl=en<\/a><\/p><p>TikTok: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/<\/a>@yahoofinance?lang=en<\/p><p>Facebook: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/yahoofinance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/yahoofinance\/<\/a><\/p><p>LinkedIn: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/yahoo-finance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/yahoo-finance<\/a><\/p><p>#novonordisk #ozempic #yahoofinance<\/p><cite>Yahoo Finance YouTube Channel<\/cite><\/blockquote><p>Got a comment?
