Should you buy Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY) stock? The bulls will argue that the company is dominating the chronic weight management niche of the pharmaceutical industry, which is projected to continue growing rapidly.

In other words, a lot of the conversation revolves around Eli Lilly's work in weight loss, and with good reason.
However, there are other important things to consider before deciding whether to pull the trigger. Notably, Eli Lilly has been expanding and diversifying its pipeline in recent years in ways that could pay rich dividends down the road. Here's what investors should know.
