Novo Nordisk CEO Mike Doustdar says the obesity drug market will not be a winner-take-all battle with rival Eli Lilly, emphasizing differentiation among treatments like pills and injectables. Doustdar argues investors underestimate demand for choice, citing multiple insulin brands as a model for future GLP-1 obesity drugs with varying benefits. The Wegovy pill currently holds about 90% of the oral GLP-1 market, giving Novo an edge over Lilly's Foundayo pill despite Lilly's strength in injectables like Zepbound. Analysts project the obesity drug market could exceed $100 billion by 2030, supporting Doustdar's view of room for multiple players amid intense competition.
