Interesting - all that fussing about temperature control between 2-8°C seems to have been unnecessary for Wegovy and it no longer needs ice packs in transit (maybe needed in hot summer weather?)

Will that apply in the UK too I wonder, or is just for the EU at the moment?

Also here of course.... https://www.pharmiweb.com/press-release/2026-04-23/wegovy-semaglutide-injection-approved-by-mhra-for-48-hour-controlled-temperature-delivery
However, i do not think things will change for patients. It is only an improvement for the logistics (the product will not have be thrown away if it stays out of fridge for a long time in a pharmacy, as it does now)

I think will all depend on the regulators in each country @SilenceInside , I think Novo negotiates with them based on their data, but each country may approve different conditions. Some seem less strict than others - for example Mounjaro in Canada (picture) let you store UNUSED kwik pens for 30 days at room temperature.
