A 503A pharmacy compounds per individual prescription and has less oversight
GLP-1 analogues, such as semaglutide (Wegovy), liraglutide (Ozempic), oral semaglutide (Rybelsus), retatrutide, and tirzepatide, have emerged as powerful tools in the battle against obesity and diabetes

In recent months, Novo has taken legal action against clinics, medical spas, and compounding pharmacies claiming to offer semaglutide accusing them of false advertising, trademark infringement and unlawful sales of non-FDA approved compounded products. Novo also claimed to have tested samples of the compounded GLP-1 drugs from these entities and found that they had significant impurities and do not have the same safety, quality and effectiveness assurances as FDA-approved drugs.
