Title: Femseven Sequi Transdermal patches! Can anyone get these lately? HELP 😤
Post by: fluffyfred on February 17, 2018, 12:59:00 PM

Hi all, I cannot seem to get these hurt patches anywhere this week! One pharmacy phoned the supplier and was told they had been recalled for some reason?
This leaves me with a problem as I should be sticking on my new one tomorrow and I don't have any 😢.
I think my gp will try to get me an alternative on Monday but have no idea which would be similar to these.
I have been on these for 7 months and they have been great, mostly for flushes and keeping my uti's away.
Would appreciate any info on an alternative please. Thanks

Somebody on a Facebook site had posted that they had emailed manufacturer and they'd said they should be in stock next week.

Hi All

Has anyone found any updates on current status of femseven sequi availability?

I have been trying to get my prescription for over a month but no joy with any pharmacy. I have also emailed the manufacturer.

Were they withdrawn? I have had terrible trouble getting the last patches to stick (much worse than normal!) I am wondering if these are faulty. Who is responsible if the patches aren't working properly? I know they are expensive, so seems unfair that the NHS should foot the bill.
Has anyone else contacted Teva?
 
Thanks  :)
