DOROMONGY: INSTAGRAM
Out of everything you can sell, Ozempic injections should not be on your bingo cards, as it is deemed illegal to administrate pills or injections without a legal licence.
The digital content creator and founder of Doro Mongy Empire, whose real name is Mongy Semakaleng Mathobela, has gone under fire for allegedly venturing into selling Ozempic injections.
With it now being summer, many people have been gunning to achieve their ultimate body goals, as they go to the gym and start running, some people tend to go for the surgery route.
The entrepreneur who sells everything from skincare products to gym sets and beauty products could now be adding something else to her list of things. The only thing is that this particular item can’t be sold to just anyone or by anyone.
According to the health hub, The South African Health Products Regulatory Authority (SAHPRA), people are urged not to buy unauthorised products containing Ozempic as this injection which is quite popular in the market for weight loss, is only to be used as a diabetes treatment.
The hub also emphasised the shortage of these injections as most people consuming them want to lose weight, adding, that this has caused many fake products to be created on the black market.
Controversial blogger Musa Khawula posted that the content creator was allegedly selling these injections for R23k, causing many X (formerly known as Twitter) users to state that it was illegal and caused many side effects.

People who sell or use ozempic despite not being diabetic are so selfish. People with actual diabetes who actually need this medication are complaining of the shortage of it available because people who refuse to go to the gym are guzzling it.

Is she licensed to sell this? Could be water in those pens for all we know! Just get a script and pay R3k at clicks for a months supply
