Would you be OK with a medical physician doing this sort of activity?

If they want to be part of a medical team with some of the perks accorded to physicians, they need to act like it. This responsibility extends to vetting the "medical" products they sell and being proper health advocates.

I understand these products are currently being put on the shelves by the franchise, but it should be the duty of their regulating authority/professional organization to do their job on a global level and advocate for patient health. Pleading ignorance and passing on the duty to someone else is not a valid reason when their core responsibility to patients is all things medication.
