Latest update on hrt supplies from the BMS x

[Hurdity]

Thanks Dotty. Very helpful. Good to see most products back in production and in stock so hopefully any local shortages will gradually ease too.

That's interesting as my chemist told me today they can't get Estradot or Estraderm 75mg even though it says Estradot is available on your list  😑

Hurdity..... yes I was pleasantly surprised as I read the list to see that there is an improvement in supply xx

it's taking a few days to come through. A week ago I was told there were no Evorel patches and the Doc needed to prescribe gel, but by the time I went to pick up the prescription on Wednesday they had 2 boxes of patches and said the others would be in by Monday next week. Things are indeed looking up.

Lloyds told me they had 9 people on back log waiting weeks for Estradot, then told me Estraderm not in stock at suppliers either. I don't understand if your BMS leaflet says available why am I being told they're not ?.

 Have you tried a different chemist Lillith?
My last prescription in March, I was told by one chemist it would take a month to get the Estradot.
I rang Novartis who said they were releasing supplies every week.
I went to a different chemist and picked up my full supply within a couple of days.

Salad I've tried Lloyds, Badhams and Boots. I've not tried Tesco yet.
