how long is the nhs specialist weight management wait where people are, mine was quoted at two years
a member in dublin said their pharmacy supply was steadier than mine in england, which surprised both of us

SD

as of when i last looked, nhs access ran through specialist weight management services and the criteria were tight

the private quotes i collected last spring ran from about 130 to about 250 a month depending on dose, and that will have moved since

northern ireland sits under different arrangements from great britain and those have changed more than once, so do not treat anything i say about it as current, for what its worth

TT

the tier 3 referral needed my gp to actually make it, and that turned out to be harder than meeting the criteria

scotland ran a different process from england when i looked into it, and a member there reported a shorter wait
i was wrong in here about what unlicensed meant for about six months until somebody sorted me out

anyone had a parcel stopped by border force and what actually happened next

SD

a private prescription in the uk was dispensable at any pharmacy willing to take it, in my experience of it
