Eli Lilly weight loss drug beats Ozempic in head-to-head study

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Patients taking Eli Lilly's new drug Mounjaro achieved significantly greater weight loss than those on Novo Nordisk's Ozempic, a head-to-head study published Monday showed.

Researchers analyzed the electronic health records of more than 18,000 US patients between May 2022 and September 2023 to compare outcomes among those receiving the two injected medicines, and published the results in JAMA Internal Medicine.
