American health insurer and CVS Health subsidiary
Foundayo, the oral GLP-1 weight-loss pill by Eli Lilly, has been authorised by the MHRA for weight management and type 2 diabetes. It will be available privately; NHS adoption depends on NICE evaluation. Several UK outlets report on uptake, pricing, side effects and competing pills, including Wegovy and Wegovy HD.
CVS Health has raised its 2026 guidance, citing stronger profits from its insurance and retail pharmacy segments and a marked improvement in its Aetna unit. The company is expanding GLP-1 weight-loss access through MinuteClinic, while flagging higher medical costs and macro risks.
