Novo Nordisk, Eli Lilly shares drop as Trump vows weight-loss drug price cuts

By Stine Jacobsen and Bhanvi Satija

Under its "most favored nation" policy, the US government will require drugmakers to charge patients in the US no more than in other wealthy nations.

Trump's made the comments during a White House event on Thursday, where he announced a deal with Germany's Merck to cut the cost of some drugs needed for in-vitro fertilisation in exchange for protection from future tariffs.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services said that the agency had not yet finished negotiating the price for the GLP-1 class of drugs, which includes Ozempic, Wegovy, and Lilly's Mounjaro.
