ApprovedApproved as Trulicity, registered by Anvisa in 2015 for type 2 diabetes

The regulator has approved it as a medicine.

Trulicity (Eli Lilly) has an active Anvisa registration dating from 2015, classed as an antidiabetic. Dulaglutide is one of the five GLP-1 active ingredients covered by RDC 973/2025, so prescriptions are retained by the pharmacy and sales are recorded in SNGPC. No generic or similar dulaglutide product was found in the register. News reports describe Trulicity as approved in Brazil for type 2 diabetes.
