GLP-1 RA generics have arrived. Could we buy semaglutide made for just $4?

India has become the first country where generic semaglutide is available.

Semaglutide is now generic.

Just not in Australia.

But in China, Brazil and Canada, generic drug makers are ready to grab the lucrative market for GLP-1 receptor agonists (RAs), which could drive prices down to $4 for a month of treatment.

Australia must wait longer, but with half a million Australians paying $250 a month for the drugs, the impact is expected to be explosive.
