"FDA labeling for the approved HCG drug products requires the following statement about the use of HCG.
"HCG has not been demonstrated to be effective adjunctive therapy in the treatment of obesity. There is no substantial evidence beyond that resulting from caloric restriction, that it causes a more attractive or 'normal' distribution of fat, or that it decreases the hunger and discomfort associated with calorie-restricted diets."
"Our HCG is made in the United States by a fully licensed compounding pharmacy using the highest of standards. You must qualify medically by completing a short medical questionnaire which will be reviewed by our staff physician."
BBB requested the business substantiate the claims per standards outlined in BBB's Code of Advertising (Section 34, Claimed Results). Claims relating to performance, energy savings, safety, efficacy or results for a product or service should be based on recent and competent testing or other objective data. Advertisers should be prepared to substantiate such claims.
According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the sale of HCG injections for weight loss is unapproved and prohibited. Additionally, BBB was unable to verify that the company is registered with the FDA as an approved drug establishment or with the Florida Board of Pharmacy as a licensed pharmacy. A company is required to register with the FDA and obtain a pharmaceutical license in order to sell drugs.
BBB received the business's position regarding this review. Business response was:
They are a tele-medicine company with a licensed medical doctor and all of our HCG is filled and shipped by a U.S. Licensed Pharmacy. We do not prescribe homeopathic HCG. HCG is prescribed as an off label use for weight loss.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this business, please let the business know that you contacted BBB for a BBB Business Profile.
As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation.
