Hims & Hers Is Selling Copycat Weight-Loss Drugs. Here’s How.

Enormous demand has created shortages of Novo’s Wegovy, as well as a competing weight loss injection from Eli Lilly called Zepbound. Both companies are spending billions of dollars to increase their manufacturing capacity, but the availability of the medicines is limited in the U.S., according to the Food and Drug Administration.
