Health Ministry to get online ads for 'energy sticks' removed


PETALING JAYA: The Health Ministry says it will act on complaints from the public about "energy sticks", a vape-like nasal inhaler, being sold online.

For a start, it said that advertisements for the products – which have not been registered with the National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency as required by the Sale of Drugs Act 1952 – will be taken down from popular ecommerce platforms.

Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.


Only RM5/month for the 1st 6 months then RM13.90 thereafter
