The Ministry of Health and Population has warned once morest the use of weight gain formulas that contain cortisone, stressing that they cause weak immunity, menstrual irregularities in women, and increased youthfulness and facial hair.
The Ministry of Health and Population said that it is incorrect to use the popular mixture to gain weight, stressing that it is unsafe and ineffective, and that cortisone should be used under medical supervision and in the doses specified by the doctor only.
