slightly off topic but i rang eleven pharmacies and the twelfth had it. that was one winter, and it is not a strategy

the online clinics vary enormously in how much they check. one wanted a video call and photographs and one wanted almost nothing
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, not advice obviously

the mhra publishes supply notices. whether your pharmacy has read them is an entirely separate matter
that was 2024
update on the earlier thing off label and unlicensed get used interchangeably in here and they are different. off label is a licensed product used outside its licence, your mileage will differ
is the pharmacy supply gap the manufacturer or the wholesalers
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
the honest position on uk policy is that it moved four times in the two years i have been paying attention, for what its worth
