Websites offering medicinal treatment services for hayfever – February 2024 

Published 4 April 2024

The following companies have amended their advertising following MHRA action on complaints to ensure the Prescription-Only Medicine (POM) Kenalog (triamcinolone acetonide, sometimes identifiable as “hayfever/anti-allergy injection”) is not promoted to the public for the treatment of hayfever. Promotion of any POM to the general public is prohibited in the UK. Furthermore, Kenalog is not a licensed treatment for hayfever.
