the compounding rule change happened and it did stop the pharmacies that were making it, based on what members reported here at the time
did the compounders give any notice before they stopped
the seasonal thing works both ways. a july parcel into australia is an easy parcel
reported by members, own currency, not comparable directly
private clinic, UK 145 - 220
statutory, DE 10 co-pay
private script, DE 180 - 240
pharmacy, PL 95 - 140
pharmacy, SE 210 - 260pharmac hasnt funded it
how bad is the heat problem in january really
an australian summer transit is the worst cold chain problem discussed in this channel and it is not close
while im here coming back after 25 months, is supply any better in australia now
Purity check: no report on file for lot H-2814. Nothing logged either way.
the wait to see somebody was quoted to me as a few weeks privately and much longer publicly, when i asked in 2024
summer is the risk
an nz member put their monthly cost at roughly 500 new zealand dollars in 2024. one person at one dose
transit was 5 days for me and the tracking went dark for a week in the middle, which is normal for that route, ill dig out the number
did the compounding rule change actually stop everything or just the big places
[edited]that was a year ago
is nz supply tied to australian supply in practice
member reported figure
keep a spare month
the depot is the problem
clinic versus pharmacy came out roughly even for me once the consult fees were counted in
people did stockpile before the compounding change and some of them are still working through it
i was wrong about the compounding change taking effect immediately, it was phased, and i had told three people otherwise
medsafe not tga
sorry to jump in anyone shipping to a rural australian address, does the last leg kill it
nobody here can tell you what is allowed in australia and the mods will stop that conversation
pharmac in new zealand, has anything moved on funding
temperature controlled shipping into australia exists and the quote i got was more than the peptide, ill dig out the number
several members lost their compounded supply with roughly two months notice. that is the reported experience, not a rule i can quote at you
check thats still true
the last leg to a rural address is where it bakes. the depot and the van are hotter than the plane ever was
i keep a spare month in the fridge specifically because summer ordering down here is a gamble, we shall see
