Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Stricter Rules for Online Pharmacies Selling Weight-Loss Jabs
Caption: Stricter Rules for Online Pharmacies Selling Weight-Loss Jabs. Online pharmacies must now enforce tougher checks to prevent weight-loss jabs from being sold to people at a healthy weight or with a history of eating disorders. Medications like Wegovy and Mounjaro can no longer be prescribed based on online questionnaires or photos alone. Instead, in-person or video consultations will be required to verify BMI and medical history. The General Pharmaceutical Council warns that pharmacies failing to comply could face investigations and sanctions. Concerns over unsafe prescribing and supply issues have also prompted new guidelines requiring prescribers to actively share dispensing details with patients’ GPs.
