Eli Lilly is broadening its direct-to-consumer approach by partnering with a digital health company, Noom, which is focused on weight management.
The collaboration connects Noom users with Eli Lilly’s pharmacy provider, GiftHealth, to facilitate access to Zepbound single-dose vials for individuals with a prescription, according to a March 31 Noom news release.
The integration also allows users to track prescription fill statuses and shipping dates within an app. Eli Lilly’s decision to offer Zepbound in a single-dose vial format for cash-paying patients is part of a broader effort to increase access to the weight loss drug.
