The figure forms a significant part of the $6.8 billion the Danish company said it plans to spend on production this year as it races to ramp up output of its incredibly popular GLP-1 drug semaglutide, sold as Ozempic for diabetes and Wegovy for obesity and cardiovascular problems

Patients receiving OZEMPIC in combination with an insulin secretagogue (e.g., sulfonylurea) or insulin may have an increased risk of hypoglycemia, including severe hypoglycemia [see Adverse Reactions (6.1), Drug Interactions (7)]
