Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories has launched Obeda, an oral semaglutide biosimilar for type 2 diabetes patients in India. This once-daily tablet aims to improve glycaemic control and follows the introduction of generic semaglutide injections. The CDSCO approved Obeda after a Phase III study showed its efficacy and safety comparable to the innovator drug. Available in three strengths, prices range from Rs 99 to Rs 225 per tablet. CEO M V Ramana emphasized the commitment to quality and supply reliability for diabetes care in India.
