<p style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>BABTAC chief executive and chair Lesley Blair MBE says</strong>: “<em>As consumer interest has shifted to become more open-minded to non-surgical procedures and injectables, it’s easy to see why customers may become desensitised to treatments offered via injections. However, it is likely that they are not asking important questions, such as whether the individual is a medical professional, or even legally allowed to prescribe the drug. This, coupled with the reality that those seeking a weight loss drug may feel it is their only option, can expose potentially vulnerable clients to dangerous consequences.”</em></p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">Blair continues,<em> “with the lack of regulation currently governing this industry, it can be confusing for customers to navigate, though it is worth noting that the UK law currently states that any product containing semaglutide should be offered via prescription only. While it may be potentially cheaper, or you might feel like you are getting more privacy by obtaining the drug online or from a beauty practitioner, it is simply not worth the risk of self-injecting a drug that has the potential to be mixed with unknown ingredients</em>.”</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">^{* According to Google Trends data captured across 90 days, search term “semiglutide price”}</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">^{** According to Google Trends data captured across 4 days, search term “Wegovy”}</p>
