The Federal Trade Commission is challenging patents on 20 brand name drugs, including the blockbuster weight-loss injection Ozempic

Federal regulators are challenging patents on 20 brand name drugs, including the blockbuster weight-loss injection Ozempic, in the latest action by the Biden administration targeting industry practices that drive up pharmaceutical prices.

Brand-name drugmakers use patents to protect their medicines and stave off cheaper, generic medicines.

Generic drugmakers can only launch their own cheaper versions if the patents have expired or are successfully challenged in court.
