Counterfeit drugs might not be such a problem if Lilly would produce mounjaro to meet the needs of diabetics. TWO MONTHS AND I STILL CANNOT FIND THE DRUG. I am the NORMAL, NOT THE EXCEPTION. CVS claims they are unable to fulfill my prescription, no supply can be found. People are desperate and clutch at counterfeits in urgent need of the drug. How is it possible no Mounjaro can be found. A personal thought is Lilly is diverting the drug to their weight loss drug because they make more money. Why is this drug going to celebrities for vanity weight loss when diabetics need it to save their life.
When I worked with counterfeit drugs at the border we were finding many of these pills (sildenafil being a big one), were being manufactured in people's basements. Guess what they used as a binder - GLUE. And for color - PAINT. 😲 I can't believe people would ingest this.
Unfortunately people are looking for opinions to get the medication since it’s impossible to get approved by insurance companies and or approved and if you have a PO come July it’s nul and void this medicine is not only beneficial for many ailments besides diabetes and is helping so many people #letsmakeiteasytoget
Important message about the risks of counterfeit and unapproved medicines. Ensuring safety through genuine medications is crucial for diabetes and obesity management.
We should find a way to make the medicine available to everyone so they don’t have to look for an alternative medicine and possibly get fake compound medication
Thank you for raising awareness on this critical issue, Eli Lilly and Company. It's crucial for everyone to understand the risks associated with counterfeit and unapproved medicines. Ensuring access to genuine, tested medications is paramount for patient safety and well-being. #PatientSafety #HealthcareAwareness
