Eli Lilly has sent cease-and-desist letters to hundreds of compounding pharmacies, telehealth companies, and medical spas making and selling “compounded” versions of tirzepatide.
The active ingredient in diabetes drug Mounjaro and weight-loss medication Zepbound was on the US Food and Drug Administration’s shortage list from December 2022 until October 2, 2024 .
When drugs in the US go into shortage, pharmacists, doctors, and licensed outsourcing facilities are permitted to "compound" copies.
Compounding trade group filed a lawsuit against the FDA claiming tirzepatide remains in short supply.
Some telehealth companies have introduced versions of the medication with other ingredients, including glycine, niacinamide, and other B vitamins.
Some compounders may try to argue that they are still permitted to produce versions with additional active ingredients.
