The Daily Caller Foundation has released a report that exposes “online pharmacies” as being sources for children to get access to “transition” drugs. Kurt Miceli, chief medical officer at DNH, summarized the report, claiming it “reveals how online pharmacies may enable minors to obtain cross-sex hormones with alarming ease.
“From websites listing online vendors across the globe to marketplaces for ‘homebrewed’ hormones, we found a multitude of troubling pathways that appear to bypass basic safeguards and regulatory oversight. Gender-confused kids should not be able to purchase potent, experimental medications with just a few simple clicks. These hormones carry significant risks, including effects that can be irreversible.
We urge the [U.S. Food and Drug Administration] and other federal agencies to investigate any potential unlawful sellers and, where appropriate, for states to do the same when their laws are being violated,” Miceli continued. “Protecting minors from unsafe and unregulated access to powerful cross-sex hormones must remain a priority.”
