unrelated but an nz member put their monthly cost at roughly 500 new zealand dollars in 2024. one person at one dose, still working it out

BB

lyophilised powder survived an australian summer for me. reconstituted would not have and i would not try it

FT

did the compounding rule change actually stop everything or just the big places

member reported figure

BB

people did stockpile before the compounding change and some of them are still working through it

SN

tga shortage notices were live for long stretches while i was following it. whether they are now i genuinely do not know

anyone shipping to a rural australian address, does the last leg kill it

summer is the risk

update on the earlier thing i pay for the fastest service in summer purely to shorten the hot part, not to get it any sooner, thats just me

BB

the compounding rule change happened and it did stop the pharmacies that were making it, based on what members reported here at the time

powder survived

TL

a parcel of mine sat in a queensland depot for 7 days in summer, and it tested fine afterwards, which surprised me

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

is there a temperature controlled option worth paying for into australia
insulated pouch, gel packs frozen solid, fastest leg you can buy. that is the whole summer protocol as this room has it

BB

nz supply has tracked australian supply closely in everything members have reported. the two markets are not independent

CC

several members lost their compounded supply with roughly two months notice. that is the reported experience, not a rule i can quote at you

wouldnt risk reconstituted

CC

insulated pouch, gel packs frozen solid, fastest leg you can buy. that is the whole summer protocol as this room has it, i have it written down somewhere

CC

sorry to jump in what does a pharmacist in australia say if you just ask about supply
the pharmacist i asked was straightforward about supply and had no idea about anything else, which is fair enough

*sorry, TFC
