Off-label and recreational use

Besides their medical uses, GLP-1 agonists are also sought by many people for cosmetic weight loss, popularized by influencers and celebrities. Gray market sellers offer unauthorized products claimed to be GLP-1 agonists online. This practice is illegal in the United States, but some buyers turn to unauthorized retailers due to being denied insurance coverage and not being able to afford the name brand drug. Buyers face risks due to counterfeit or substandard drugs sold by unauthorized sellers.
