AI summary

Dr. Reddy's has launched its generic Semaglutide Injection in Canada following Health Canada approval on April 28, 2026. The company was the first to receive regulatory clearance for a generic version of this GLP-1 therapy in Canada, which is also the first G7 country to authorize generic Semaglutide. The product is indicated for once-weekly treatment of type 2 diabetes in adults, available in 2mg and 4mg pre-filled pen formulations. CEO Erez Israeli highlighted the milestone and noted the company is actively working to expand access to GLP-1 therapies across multiple global markets, building on a recent India launch under the brand name Obeda.

Likely market impact

This launch represents a significant regulatory milestone as the first generic Semaglutide approved in a G7 country, potentially opening a major market for Dr. Reddy's GLP-1 portfolio, though specific revenue impact is not disclosed.
