Market Chatter: Noom Offers Smaller Doses of Compounded Wegovy
May 26, 2025 10:51 AM

08:38 AM EDT, 05/20/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Novo Nordisk's ( NVO ) weight-loss drug Wegovy is being offered in smaller doses of a compounded version by online weight-loss tool Noom, Reuters reported Tuesday, citing senior company officials.

Noom's compounded semaglutide, the active ingredient in Wegovy, is being offered as part of a program personalized for patients, the report said.

Noom Chief Executive Geoff Cook said the move would not conflict with US regulations amid a crackdown on mass production of generic versions of Wegovy, the report said.

"There is a personalized, and there has always been a personalized, exception," Cook said.
