When wegovy off patent in uk?

When will Wegovy’s patent protection end in the UK?

I can’t determine a specific “Wegovy off-patent” date for the UK from the information provided here. Patent and “off-patent” timing depends on which patent(s) and which form of protection you mean (for example, the active substance patent vs. later patents on specific formulations, dosing devices, or other method claims). It also may differ from the date regulatory exclusivities expire.

What date should you look for in the UK (patent vs. exclusivity vs. “off patent”)?

In the UK, companies and analysts usually track:
- Patent expiry for the relevant UK patent(s) covering semaglutide/brand-specific aspects of Wegovy.
- Regulatory exclusivity periods that can delay generic or biosimilar-style competition even after a patent date passes.
Because of that, “off patent” is often a range rather than a single day, depending on which legal barrier is still in force.

If you want, I can pull the exact UK dates—what details do you mean by “Wegovy”?

To give a precise UK answer, tell me which of these you’re asking about:
- The first patent expiry for Wegovy (overall market exclusivity)
- A specific patent number (if you have one)
- The UK launch price/competition start date for a generic or another product with semaglutide

If you share your preferred meaning, I’ll narrow it to the correct date(s).
