Anvisa banned the sale of unregistered weight-loss pens in Brazil due to quality and safety concerns. The agency prohibited tirzepatide pens from Synedica and TG, and all retatrutide pens, citing unknown origins and lack of registration, following a severe health incident. These unregulated products pose significant health risks and their sale is illegal, with medical prescriptions now required for approved weight-loss substances.
