PHOENIX – The Arizona Attorney General’s Office is warning consumers about expired and potentially dangerous compounded prescription medications sold to the public by Slimming Grace, located at 1115 Stockton Hill Road, Suite 101, Kingman, Arizona.
Compounded prescription medications and other products were sold to the public despite being expired. Expired compounded medications may become unstable, lack necessary preservatives, and pose an increased risk of contamination, making them unsafe for use. Some of these medications were also identified as potentially dangerous for pregnant women and their unborn children.
Additionally, some medications were dispensed without the required medical consultation or valid prescription. Compounded medications should only be provided after a proper medical evaluation by a licensed physician, a valid prescription, and pharmacist or physician counseling. Many require follow-up care to ensure effectiveness and detect possible complications, such as toxicity, allergic reactions, or other harmful side effects.
Anyone who has purchased or used medications or products from Slimming Grace in Kingman, AZ should immediately consult a qualified medical provider to assess potential health risks.
