The Food and Drug Administration said on Friday that the shortage of semaglutide injection products, such as Novo Nordisk's Wegovy, has been resolved. FDA's update led to renewed uncertainty for a growing group of telehealth companies such as Hims & Hers that have built businesses around offering cheaper copies of the branded medications.

HIMS stock plunged by 18% after the FDA news that resolved a shortage of weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy, which previously allowed Hims & Hers to sell compounded alternatives. Compounded versions were permitted during the shortage but are now restricted unless they meet specific exceptions.
