Health Canada warns about fake or unauthorized versions of GLP-1 drugs

Health Canada is warning people not to buy or use fake or unauthorized versions of GLP-1 drugs such as semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy. The health agency says it has found retailers in Canada selling unauthorized GLP-1 products — sometimes referred to as "fauxzempic" — both in stores and online.
