FDA approves first generic of diabetes drug Victoza, boosting access amid shortages.

The FDA has approved the first generic version of the GLP-1 injection Victoza (liraglutide) for patients with type 2 diabetes, helping to improve access to the drug which has been in short supply. This once-daily injection aids in lowering blood sugar levels when used alongside diet and exercise. The approval is part of the FDA's efforts to increase access to complex medications by expediting the review of generics, especially during drug shortages.
