The Health Ministry warns against using injectable products stolen from company warehouses amid concerns that they may be sold to medical and aesthetic clinics after leaving the regulated supply chain.
According to Maariv's report on the ministry's warning, thousands of packages were stolen from the warehouses of two companies. Their storage and transport conditions since the theft are unknown, so their quality and safety cannot be guaranteed.
The ministry urges doctors and aesthetic medicine professionals to buy injectable products only from authorized suppliers. The public is asked to verify that materials used in treatment come from regulated, supervised sources. The warning concerns the possible sale of stolen products, not a finding that all injectable products on the market are defective.
