Why are they making it illegal? Is there an issue with the compound, or is it an issue if lobbyists protecting the more profitable drug?

It’s “legal” because of the lack of supply in critical medications so the FDA gives a variance to allow compound pharmacies to produce/sell critical medications until supply issues are resolved.

Seems to me there is a lack of supply for low cost semaglutide (and similar). That should be enough for the FDA to say “I’ll allow it”
