Are we sure about this?
On instagram I’m getting blasted with GPL-1 weight loss prescriptions and testosterone prescriptions (even though I’m in my 30’s, athletic, not overweight… I think? But these ads make me question even that…)
If it weren’t for the “talk to a doctor” barrier and you could just click “get free sample” for wegovy or testosterone or whatever other drug, there will be a lot of abuse.
Companies, especially startups, will skirt the law. They already do it and they don’t get in trouble.
But the advertising industry + prescription drugs is a deadly combo. 1) convince people they have ailments that require treatment, 2) sell them an unneeded treatment.
Maybe I would benefit from Wegovy / GPL-1? According to these instagram ads I will. And add in testosterone because, why not.
