What: Eli Lilly’s Zepbound is the latest weight loss drug to hit the market (the medication is known as Mounjaro when prescribed for diabetes), and the company has set up a telehealth program to ship drugs directly to patients after they meet with a provider.

Why it matters: Lots of companies have set up telehealth sites to connect patients with hard-to-find weight loss drugs, but Eli Lilly is the first pharmaceutical company to do it themselves. It’s a new frontier.
