Abstract ABSTRACT

The​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ exponentially rising story of GLP-1 drugs such as Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro has been not only one of the best medical stories but also a great economic event of the past ten years.

Simply these drugs that were initially aimed at type 2 diabetics have turned out to be the most reasonable way of weight loss which happens to be a side
effect of appetite regulation. Consequently, the demand forGLP-1 drugs has skyrocketed so that companies from different sectors like healthcare, food and beverage, fitness, fashion retail, insurance, and pharmaceuticals are changing customer behavior, supply chains, and strategic operations radically just by
the domino effect of GLP-1 drugs.This research is an investigation into the business and economic effects of the widespread use of GLP-1. Through literature review, market data, and industry analyses, the paper explores the alteration in consumer habits, the transformation of traditional markets, and the companies' reaction through innovation due to the widespread use of the drugs.

The results reveal that GLP-1 is not merely a medical breakthrough but also a major economic shift that has the potential to change the face of numerous industries for quite a few years to ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌follow.
