Eli Lilly (LLY) is trying to make its obesity drug Zepbound more accessible, specifically for those individuals who may not have insurance. A 2.5 mg single-dose vial will now cost $399 per month while a four-week supply of the 5 mg dose will be $549. That's down from about $1,000 per month. The trade off is that these doses are sold via vials and will need a syringe and needle as opposed to the injector pens the pricier doses utilize. 

Yahoo Finance healthcare reporter Anjalee Khemlani reports the details.
