Highlights from this day
- slow.taper — slightly off topic but the criteria included a bmi threshold plus comorbidities when i read them, and they have been revised since, so check rather than trust me,… 13:46
- slow.taper — quick one a member in dublin said their pharmacy supply was steadier than mine in england, which surprised both of us 13:50
- private_script_pri — sorry to jump in an irish member told me their out of pocket cost was noticeably higher than the uk equivalent when they compared in 2024, ymmv 13:51
- slow.taper — unlicensed in mhra terms means there is no uk marketing authorisation for that product. it is not the same as illegal and it is not the same as approved 13:59

sorry to jump in an irish member told me their out of pocket cost was noticeably higher than the uk equivalent when they compared in 2024, ymmv
pharmacy has had nothing for three weeks, is that everywhere or just my bit of the country
has anyone been asked for id at a pharmacy counter for this
unlicensed in mhra terms means there is no uk marketing authorisation for that product. it is not the same as illegal and it is not the same as approved
is the irish price genuinely higher or is that a currency thing
ireland runs its own reimbursement system and as best i understood it a year ago the picture there was less generous than people expect
wales was reported in here as slower to get started and steadier once you were in, and that was second hand
is the picture in ireland completely separate on reimbursement
