Dr Reddy’s pins hopes on semaglutide, but timely approvals hold the key
Subscribe to enjoy similar stories. Dr Reddy’s Laboratories Ltd (DRL) received a shot in the arm on 2 December, when the Delhi High Court allowed it to export the weight-loss drug semaglutide, which is set to become patent-free in several countries including Canada, China and Brazil from January 2026.
