The Jordan Food and Drug Administration Cracks Down on Unlicensed Products
A recent regulatory campaign conducted by the inspection teams from the Directorate of Medical Devices and Supplies and the Directorate of Pharmaceuticals targeted medical clinics and beauty centers in Amman. This campaign exemplifies national professionalism in health oversight and underscores the Jordan Food and Drug Administration’s (JFDA) commitment to protecting the public from health risks associated with unlicensed products or medical practices conducted outside legal frameworks.اضافة اعلان

The latest seizures involved NAD+ injections and other intravenous supplements used in biohacking and wellness practices at an unlicensed beauty center and a palliative care clinic. These incidents highlight that some illegal medical practices are not merely procedural violations—they pose direct health risks. Notably, some of these injections were brought into the country personally by travelers, bypassing official regulatory channels. This points to potential gaps in monitoring personal medical imports and emphasizes the need to educate the public about the dangers of unregistered products.

The decisive actions of the inspection teams—including confiscating all quantities and taking legal measures against the two facilities—demonstrate the JFDA’s strict enforcement of medical and pharmaceutical regulations. This proactive approach, under the leadership of Dr. Rana Ubaidat, reflects the administration’s ability to tackle challenges even in complex situations, while continuously improving oversight systems and healthcare services.

This campaign is more than a crackdown; it sends a clear warning to anyone considering illegal medical practices or the distribution of unlicensed products: the JFDA will not tolerate violations, and monitoring continues around the clock. It is also a positive reassurance for citizens that their health and safety are national priorities, and that competent national authorities are actively safeguarding them.

Overall, the campaign confirms the effectiveness of the Jordan Food and Drug Administration as a vital national institution capable of protecting society, enforcing regulations, and boosting public confidence in the medical and pharmaceutical sectors. It serves as a model of proactive health governance that balances strict oversight with ongoing system improvements to ensure all medical practices within the kingdom operate legally and safely.
