a parcel of mine sat in a queensland depot for 9 days in summer, and it tested fine afterwards, which surprised me

pharmac in new zealand, has anything moved on funding

the honest summary for australia is that the rules changed under people mid treatment and the room is still sore about it

sorry to jump in did the compounders give any notice before they stopped

SN

i keep a spare month in the fridge specifically because summer ordering down here is a gamble

july is easy

nz has it worse

genuine question what happened to people who were on a compounded version
the honest summary for australia is that the rules changed under people mid treatment and the room is still sore about it

pharmac hasnt funded it

the depot is the problem

SN

coming back to this the members who were on a compounded version mostly moved to the branded product and paid more, from what i saw, still working it out

SN

follow up the pharmacist i asked was straightforward about supply and had no idea about anything else, which is fair enough

*PeptideMeter not the other one

TL

shipping into an australian summer, what do people actually do about it
the compounding rule change happened and it did stop the pharmacies that were making it, based on what members reported here at the time

genuine question transit was 20 days for me and the tracking went dark for a week in the middle, which is normal for that route, someone check my working

tga and the shortage notices, is that still going where people are

that was a year ago

BB

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

i pay for the fastest service in summer purely to shorten the hot part, not to get it any sooner

clinic versus pharmacy came out roughly even for me once the consult fees were counted in

PP

the seasonal thing works both ways. a july parcel into australia is an easy parcel

CC

is it cheaper through a clinic or a pharmacy in australia

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
