Dangerously low levels of blood sugar—attributed to counterfeit versions of Novo Nordisk’s Ozempic—hospitalized three people in the United States last year, the American Association of Poison Control Centers (AAPCC) told Reuters. In all last year, the AAPCC revealed that there were 3,316 calls from users of semglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic. It was more than double the number of calls from the previous year and a 15-fold increase from 2019, according to CNN.

Of the three dangerous U.S. cases of low blood sugar, also known as hypoglycemia, the AAPCC suspected the users were supplied with fake versions of semaglutide. All three cases were reported from the same regional poison control center, of which there are 55 ...

Eli Lilly’s attempt to wrestle a leukemia market from companies including AbbVie, AstraZeneca, BeiGene and Johnson & Johnson has analysts purring, with the GlobalData team tipping the drugmaker to capture 60% of demand and deliver $3 billion in annual sales. The GlobalData report covers the use of BTK inhibitors in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Pharmacyclics, now part of AbbVie, and J&J created the market with Imbruvica but now face a sea of threats, with the Inflation Reduction Act, increased competition and the looming prospect of generics pointing to a downward trajectory. AstraZeneca’s Calquence began challenging Imbruvica for the CLL market in 2019 and BeiGene’s Brukinsa joined the party last year. But the GlobalData analysts expect Lilly to come from behind to become the dominant force in CLL in the coming years. Lilly won accelerated FDA approval for Jaypirca in CLL last month. While the drugmaker, which acquired Jaypirca in its $8 billion ...
