Novo Nordisk gets approval to carry out clinical trials on weekly insulin

Novo Nordisk has received approval from the Drug Controller General of India to conduct phase-III studies for its new weekly insulin injection, IcoSema, in India. IcoSema is a combination of insulin and Semaglutide and is meant to control blood sugar levels in people with type-two diabetes. The proposed weekly insulin shot could be a game changer as it would decrease the discomfort of daily injections and may be as effective as regular insulin.
