  "account": "Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia mengawal lebih melebihi RM400,000 worth of unregistered weight loss and diabetes medication during 2025-September 2026 period, according to Minister Dzulkefly Ahmad. The crackdown was carried out due to a rising trend of sales of GLP-1 receptor agonist drugs without clinical monitoring and official control. This includes the trial drug Retatrutide and Ozempic product, both sold illegally online. In total, 697 units of Retatrutide and 62 units of Ozempic were seized, valued at RM341,000 and RM64,170 respectively. The Ministry will continue to monitor and control online sales and e-commerce platforms to ensure public safety and health.",
