The National Defense Service (NVSZ) initiated an investigation at the National Investigation Bureau of the National Emergency Police due to the misuse of the names of well-known doctors for the advertising of drugs that are not officially approved in Hungary, said to have a medicinal effect, the main referent of the NVSZ informed MTI on Wednesday.
Those who take these "medicines" advertised on the Internet but not tested in Hungary are putting their health at risk, said Pap Judit .
"Be careful, as doctors do not advertise medicines".As an example, he mentioned that a foreign company published a fake interview with Gyula Kincses
They also misused of Péter Álmos , the vice-president of the chamber, when they advertise a product that promises to eliminate high blood pressure and "clean the blood vessels" on a website deceptively similar to a working internet portal.
The IOC continues to emphasize that
Chamber officials do not promote any drugs, legal or illegal. All such advertisements and information are false and untrue.In a similar way, a fake news was published on the Internet with the name and photo of György Acsády A non-registered product for the treatment of diabetes is being advertised with his name, despite the fact that he never dealt with the treatment of diabetes, Pap Judit indicated.
In all three cases, they advertise the product on a website operated on a foreign server, and then try to persuade the customer to order as large a package as possible over the phone, he added.
Semmelweis University regularly informs the public about cases where fraudsters misuse the name of the institution's doctors, and the university also always draws attention to the fact that consumers should only purchase medicinal products from a licensed place in Hungary, from a legal source, after consulting their doctor - reads the announcement.
