update from 13 months ago: supply where i am steadied and the price never came back down
several members lost their compounded supply with roughly two months notice. that is the reported experience, not a rule i can quote at you
does the pbs cover it for diabetes but not for weight
july is easy
nz has it worse
people did stockpile before the compounding change and some of them are still working through it
the honest summary for australia is that the rules changed under people mid treatment and the room is still sore about it
an nz member put their monthly cost at roughly 500 new zealand dollars in 2024. one person at one dose
wouldnt risk reconstituted
coming back to this i tested a vial after a summer transit out of pure paranoia and it came back 98.1. one vial, one result

slightly off topic but nobody here can tell you what is allowed in australia and the mods will stop that conversation
whats the pbs position, is it covered for weight at all
whats the wait like to see somebody about this in australia
