Britain's medicines watchdog has banned the first advertising for oral weight loss medicines, including treatments related to Wegovy. The move comes as demand for weight loss drugs surges and companies increasingly target consumers directly. Regulators are stepping in to stop misleading or premature promotion of the new oral treatments.
