GLIPIQ has been approved by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) following a multicentre, randomised, comparative, active-controlled, open-label Phase III clinical study conducted in India. The study demonstrated favourable efficacy and safety outcomes in Indian patients with Type 2 diabetes.
The drug is available in both vial and pre-filled pen formulations. The vial-based version, supported by dose-specific syringes, is designed to allow flexible, physician-guided dosing, particularly during the early stages of therapy. The company said this format is expected to offer a more cost-effective treatment option, with weekly therapy priced between Rs 325 and Rs 440.
The pre-filled pen formulation offers the convenience of self-dosing for long-term use. Together, the two formats are intended to provide a structured treatment pathway that supports adherence, continuity of care, and improved patient outcomes.
Alongside the product launch, Glenmark has introduced a patient support programme named 'Sankalp', aimed at assisting therapy initiation, improving comfort with injectable treatments, and supporting long-term adherence.
Semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, is widely used in the management of Type 2 diabetes, particularly in patients with comorbidities such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and chronic kidney disease, due to its broader cardiometabolic benefits beyond glycaemic control.
Alok Malik, President and Business Head, India Formulations, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, said, 'Affordability is one of the biggest barriers to initiating advanced diabetes therapy in India. With GLIPIQ, we are setting a new benchmark in affordability for GLP-1 therapy, with weekly treatment starting at Rs 325. The vial-based format enables us to offer a more affordable option while supporting clinically guided initiation and flexible dosing.
Building on our experience in the GLP-1 category, including Lirafit' (Liraglutide), and supported by our 'Sankalp' program, we aim to help more patients access, initiate, and continue therapy over time.'
Glenmark Pharmaceuticals is engaged in the business of development, manufacturing, and marketing of pharmaceutical products, both formulations and active pharmaceutical ingredients, to regulated and semi-regulated markets.
Glenmark Pharmaceuticals reported a 15.9% jump in consolidated net profit to Rs 403.21 crore on a 17.8% increase in revenue from operations to Rs 3,888 crore in Q3 FY26 over Q3 FY25.
Shares of Glenmark Pharmaceuticals rallied 3.94% to Rs 2,181.05 on the BSE.

ALWAYS AVOID
We would like to caution you against such fraudulent calls and SMSes and urge you to be alert. Follow the golden rule:
Do not share your Login Credentials or Passwords with anybody
BOBCaps employees / representatives never ask for your password.
Certain tele-fraudsters / unscrupulous and unregistered portfolio managers call customers or SMS them on the pretext of providing investment tips and lure them to invest through their bogus firms by promising huge profits.
Such deceitful callers ask the customer to share his/her login credentials with passwords to allow trading in their accounts, assuring huge returns.
Often trades done in the customer’s accounts are far from the best interest of the customers. Holdings of customers are often sold and with the funds, trades are then placed in illiquid securities at unrealistic prices.
At times, the holdings of customers are sold at prices detrimental to the customer. The so-called “portfolio manager” assures profits, which naturally does not materialize. Customers are deceived into providing access to their trading accounts, thereby allowing such fraudsters access to funds and securities available to execute trades, injurious to the customer’s interest.
In our continuous effort to keep you safeguard from the market related frauds and increase awareness while conducting trades, we request you to go through the Press Release issued by the NSE and would request you to ensure that you do not engage with the individuals and entities mentioned below:
