"The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has said clinics are not permitted to make medicinal claims for the peptide treatments offered by their service."
"Where studies have been carried out, most are in animals or cells, and there is little scientific evidence to support such health and wellness claims in humans."
"The MHRA confirmed such websites were making medicinal claims for the peptide treatments being offered and this was not permitted."
The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) is investigating UK clinics for potentially illegal claims regarding unregulated peptide therapies. These peptides, marketed for various benefits like anti-aging and injury recovery, lack substantial scientific evidence in humans. The MHRA states that clinics cannot make medicinal claims for these treatments, as they would then be classified as medicines under the Human Medicines Regulations 2012. Despite this, many clinics continue to advertise these peptides with unverified claims, prompting regulatory scrutiny.
