FDA halts banned hormone smuggling
The staff of the General Food and Drug Authority at Jaber Customs Center, in collaboration with the Jordanian Customs Department, successfully thwarted an attempt to smuggle a quantity of unlicensed hormones into the kingdom. The shipment included 70 injections and more than 100 hormone tablets. These hormones are prohibited from circulation and are not legally registered. They are misused for bodybuilding purposes, posing health risks such as increased likelihood of heart diseases, hormonal disorders, and impacts on fertility. The Authority also indicated that it follows strict regulatory procedures and urges citizens to verify the legality of substances before use, as well as to inquire through official communication platforms.
