2023 saw a significant increase in the seizure of illegal body image medicines such as anabolic steroids, Botox, and fake tanning aids by the Health Products Regulatory Authority (HPRA) in Ireland. Seizures of anabolic steroids, sedatives, erectile dysfunction medicines, painkillers, and stimulants increased last year, with almost 900,000 units confiscated.
