Urgent warning against experimental weight-loss drugs

Some drugs are being sold online and promoted by influencers on social media.

There’s an urgent warning against patients purchasing a weight loss injection currently in clinical trials.

Once licensed, Retatrutide could become the most effective slimming drug on the market, but it hasn’t been approved for human use anywhere in the world.

Despite this, the substance is being sold online and promoted by influencers on social media.

STV News spoke to one woman who was illegally sold a weight loss jab and is urging others not to risk turning to the black market following rising costs.
