Background

I want the government to review the regulations for weight loss injections. I feel that the regulations for weight loss injections purchased publicly and privately are not strong enough to protect the user on their journey, as you could be on a weight loss injection for over a year.

Additional details

I understand that new regulations have been added but I think more needs to be done including blood tests prior to prescription and the banning of sponsored posts/search results advertising these. A blood test is needed for certain acne medications but not a weight loss injection, this is not right.
