The Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP1) drugs are set to be the star performers for insulin drug makers across the globe as the menace of diabetes and obesity is in line to rise exponentially in the years to come. GLP1 drugs are medications which have traditionally been used to treat type 2 diabetes and more recently for obesity. The pharma majors making GLP1 drugs globally are racing to get their drugs on the shelves with the demand for these drugs outstripping the supply in many markets. GLP1 drugs have become highly recommended due to their diverse treatment profile which is effective in lowering sugar levels, reducing obesity and providing cardiovascular risk benefits.We caught up with John C. Dawber, CVP and MD, Global Business Services, Novo Nordisk to know about the company’s growth story and much more.
