The guest speakers says it all LOL!

The Obesity Society (TOS) convened a panel of leading experts in obesity medicine, pharmacy, and regulatory law on March 19, 2025, to discuss the growing concerns surrounding the use of compounded GLP-1s for weight management and diabetes treatment. The briefing underscored the critical importance of ensuring patient access to safe, FDA-approved GLP-1 medications.

The briefing occurred on the same day as the FDA’s deadline for compounding companies to cease making tirzepatide, according to the FDA’s latest guidance.

The discussion was moderated by Marc-Andre Cornier, MD, president of The Obesity Society, and featured the following speakers:

Angela Fitch, MD, immediate past president of the Obesity Medicine Association

Robert Popovian, PharmD, founder of Conquest Advisors

Lowell Schiller, JD, former principal associate commissioner for policy at the FDA
