Four Corners on ABC – Ozempic … Mounjaro … they’re the weight-loss wonder drugs in high demand and short supply.
Some pharmacists think making their own versions of the injectable drugs is now the answer, but as Four Corners reveals, it’s leading to an unregulated black market and the potential for dangerous side effects.
In this investigation, the ABC’s national health reporter Elise Worthington meets desperate patients trying to access the medications, and exposes an Australian-based scam illegally exporting the suspect drugs overseas.
Four Corners: The Ozempic Underground will air at 8.30pm on Monday 1 April on ABC TV and ABC iview. See more at abc.net.au/news and on ABC News social media platforms.
