iDexis Fights Ban on Semaglutide | Johannesburg News
from Johannesburg News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
iDexis, a compounding pharmacy in South Africa, is facing another legal setback after the high court in Pretoria rejected its bid to overturn a ban on making semaglutide-based medicines — the key ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy. The judge slammed their appeal as a “lengthy diatribe” and an abuse of process, saying they merely recycled arguments already dismissed. While the ruling is interim and tied to ongoing health investigations, it’s a major win for the Pharmaceutical Task Group, which champions public safety and regulatory integrity. iDexis vows to fight again at the Supreme Court of Appeal, though they’ve already halted production of semaglutide and tirzepatide following a May raid. For now, they’re operating only as a regular pharmacy, with health professionals urged not to stock recalled products — and compliance appears strong.
