- two_lifts_a_week — as far as i understood it a year ago, the pbs listing covered the diabetes indication and not weight management, and that split catches people out 16:38
- meniscus_mel — an australian summer transit is the worst cold chain problem discussed in this channel and it is not close 17:29
- meniscus_mel — pharmac had not funded it for weight when i last read about it and the nz members in here were all paying privately 17:44

whats the wait like to see somebody about this in australia
three gel packs and a foil liner got mine through a january delivery. the packs arrived liquid and the powder was fine
tga and the shortage notices, is that still going where people are

wouldnt risk reconstituted
temperature controlled shipping into australia exists and the quote i got was more than the peptide
lyophilised powder survived an australian summer for me. reconstituted would not have and i would not try it
i pay for the fastest service in summer purely to shorten the hot part, not to get it any sooner
an australian summer transit is the worst cold chain problem discussed in this channel and it is not close
i keep a spare month in the fridge specifically because summer ordering down here is a gamble
i tested a vial after a summer transit out of pure paranoia and it came back 97.4. one vial, one result
the honest summary for australia is that the rules changed under people mid treatment and the room is still sore about it
pharmac had not funded it for weight when i last read about it and the nz members in here were all paying privately
pharmac hasnt funded it
powder survived
people did stockpile before the compounding change and some of them are still working through it
three gel packs
tga and medsafe are separate regulators making separate decisions, and people conflate them constantly
the last leg to a rural address is where it bakes. the depot and the van are hotter than the plane ever was
an nz member put their monthly cost at roughly 500 new zealand dollars in 2024. one person at one dose
