scam websites selling bogus drugs
« on: June 15, 2023, 12:29:17 PM »

We have found a scam website using the Menopause Matters brand to sell bogus testosterone medication. Menopause Matters does not recommend or sell medication to anyone.

The health, safety and wellbeing of everyone in the Menopause Matters community is our number one priority and we would urge any women who wants to discuss testosterone medication to speak with a GP or a medical professional.

Do not buy, sell, trade, offer or accept any medication on this forum. Use only medication prescribed to you.

"Not many people realise that sharing medication is both dangerous and illegal, even between family members. According to the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Authority (MHRA), anybody who supplies prescription drugs to someone who it is not intended for, is breaking the law."

How to Donate Medicines
You can return unwanted medicines to your GP. Inter Care collects, checks and sorts medicines for shipping to clinics in Africa.

The same thing has happened to Louise Newson's Newson Health and Balance brands.

The bogus website has now been taken down and the domain owners have been asked to suspend the domain and subdomains permanently.
