Fake adverts for weight loss drugs by a company pretending to be health and beauty retailer Boots have been removed from TikTok after the firm complained.
The adverts for prescription-only weight loss drugs appeared to show smiling healthcare professionals from the British retailer - but in reality they were made with AI.
It is illegal to advertise prescription-only weight loss drugs to the public.
A spokesperson for Boots told the BBC the firm was "aware" of the videos and had complained to TikTok, which said it had removed the videos.
A TikTok spokesperson said it did not allow "harmful or misleading AI-generated ads" on its platform.
