Selected passages from the FDA letter
Quoted FDA text from the published dataset. These selected excerpts are not the complete letter.
Passage 1The compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide products displayed on your website identify “medica weight loss” on the pictured label, suggesting Medica Weight Loss is the compounder of those drugs when in fact it is not.
Passage 2Your website claims that the compounded drug products it offers are sourced from an “FDA-approved pharmacy.” Compounding facilities, including pharmacies and outsourcing facilities, are not “FDA-approved” or “FDA-licensed” entities. The FD&C Act does not establish an “FDA-approved” or “FDA-licensed” designation for pharmacies or outsourcing facilities.
