Since the first FDA approval for weight loss, GLP-1 receptor agonists are in the news as new blockbuster drugs.

As of today, neither Novo Nordisk's Ozempic / Wegovy (Semaglutid), nor Eli Lilly's Mounjaro / Tirzepatid are projected to generate more 2023 sales than Merck's Keytruda (Pembrolizumab, a checkpoint inhibitor used in tumor therapy).

This market will resolve YES if a GLP-1 agonist is the best-selling drug in 2025 (new sales) per reliable company or media reports.

Does "bestselling" mean "top dollar value" or, like, doses sold?

Does it count if the drug hits multiple targets and one of the targets is GLP-1R agonism? For example, tirzepatide targets both the GLP-1 and GIP receptors.

predicts NO

@Tossup I'm inclined to include cases like that

I am betting under the assumption that this is about global sales, as you did not specify any single country.

@WXTJ Yes, global sales
