Canada's health regulator approved Apotex's generic semaglutide, making it the second authorized copycat version of Novo Nordisk's Ozempic in the country. The decision is a modest positive for Apotex and reinforces increasing generic competition in the diabetes/weight-loss drug market. Market impact is likely limited, but the news is relevant for pricing and share dynamics in the sector.
