Dr Reddy's Launches New Generic Ozempic Brands Amid Obeda Supply Disruption
Dr Reddy's Laboratories has introduced two new generic semaglutide brands, Obeda Pro and Obeda Plus, amid supply disruptions of its original Obeda injection in India. The original Obeda supply was halted in July due to an impurity in the active ingredient, prompting a recall for technical evaluation. While distributors suggest the company may discontinue Obeda in favor of the new brands, Dr Reddy's states that these products were planned prior to the disruption and are part of a broader portfolio strategy, not replacements.
