Four companies amended their advertising following MHRA’s action on complaints in October to ensure that prescription-only medicines (POM) are not promoted to the public. These are:
- Cricklewood Dental Practice, London
- Discover Laser Clinic, Burnley
- Kings Hill Dental, Kent
- Passion Hair and Beauty, Devon
This listing relates to specific advertising action taken on a particular date and is no endorsement of the ongoing practices of the clinic.
