That doesn't figure into the pricing strategy or giving away patent protection in Canada in 2018 as far as I can tell?
Compounding isn't allowed in Canada, currently, so I assume you are talking about the US? Compounding Ozempic in the US wasn't a thing in 2018 when this patent was released in Canada, so not sure what one has to do with the other.
What are you getting at in reference to the argument that the patent was released intentionally in order to charge a higher price?
Compounding isn't some shady enterprise. Its a standard medical use case. I have to use metronidozol cream on my face, but I'm allergic to some preservatives, so a compounding pharmacy makes a version of metronidozol cream without my allergens.
It's also relatively common for toddlers who need special doses, or for people who can't swallow pills and need liquid formulations.
