The latest announcement is out from Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories Ltd. ( (IN:DRREDDY) ).

Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories has received a Notice of Compliance from Health Canada for its generic Semaglutide Injection, making it the first company to gain marketing authorization for this product in Canada. The approval, which arrived ahead of Health Canada’s review target date, covers 2 mg and 4 mg per pen presentations and carries no fixed expiry, enabling commercialization, sale, and distribution in the Canadian market.

The authorization strengthens Dr. Reddy’s position in complex generics and peptide-based therapeutics, underpinned by fully in-house API production and finished product manufacturing via partner OneSource Specialty Pharma. With launch preparations underway in what is recognized as the world’s second-largest market for Semaglutide, the company stands to benefit from rising diabetes prevalence in Canada and the growing demand for GLP-1 receptor agonist therapies among patients and healthcare systems.
