Introduction

Here’s a funny thing. Pharmaceutical companies and healthcare professionals are intentionally restricting the information that consumers see online. I doubt that the majority of people searching for information about aesthetics, wellness and health are even aware of this fact.
It all stems from the Medicines Act 1968 and the subsequent amends in the <a href="https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2012/1916/regulation/284/made">Human Medicines Regulations in 2012</a>. This prohibits anyone in the UK from advertising a prescription-only product to the general public. The Regulation actually states:
<blockquote>
‘A person may not publish an advertisement that is likely to lead to the use of a prescription only medicine’.
</blockquote>
If you’ve been to the United States, you will probably have seen advertisements for prescription products – from the airport billboards through TV and social media. That’s because the rules of engagement are different on the other side of the pond. They can do it.
In contrast, here in the UK two of the groups that arguably know the most about medicines (the healthcare professionals and the manufacturers) are extremely restricted in what they can share with the general public when it comes to medicines. Despite having access to tons of information, they are unable to ‘advertise’ to the public, and this also hamstrings information sharing too.
