In the US, revenue for the full year stood at $16.81bn, representing an 18% rise. This increase was driven by a 19% growth in volume and partially offset by a 1% decline due to reduced realised prices.
Crucial growth products, including Trulicity, Taltz, Verzenio, Jardiance, Olumiant, Retevmo and Emgality contributed to the rise in US volume.
During the year, operating income surged 5% to nearly $6.36bn from $6.06bn in 2020.
