Chinese suppliers shift from making unauthorized weight-loss drugs to developing legitimate generics.
Chinese suppliers, once key providers of cut-price weight-loss drugs to the US gray market, are now shifting to making legitimate generics.
This change follows US regulatory crackdowns on compounding pharmacies and a drop in raw ingredient shipments.
Previously, these suppliers provided enough semaglutide and tirzepatide to produce over a billion unauthorized doses.
Now, shipments of these ingredients from China have fallen dramatically, with semaglutide down 90% and tirzepatide down 34%.
At least eight Chinese companies are now developing their own generics as patents expire in markets like Canada and Brazil.
