update on the earlier thing nobody here can tell you what is allowed in australia and the mods will stop that conversation, from memory
nz has it worse

nz supply has tracked australian supply closely in everything members have reported. the two markets are not independent
pharmac had not funded it for weight when i last read about it and the nz members in here were all paying privately
temperature controlled shipping into australia exists and the quote i got was more than the peptide, i think
is there any reimbursement in nz at all or is it fully private

as of a year or so ago there was no nz reimbursement for weight indications at all, so check rather than taking that as current
australian figures members reported ran from about 130 to 400 a month depending on route and dose, as of about a year ago
the depot is the problem
keep a spare month
three gel packs
ok so nz members have consistently reported worse availability and higher prices than australia. that is anecdote, but it is repeated anecdote
the members who were on a compounded version mostly moved to the branded product and paid more, from what i saw
member reported figure
anyone in nz paying out of pocket and willing to say what it comes to
i tested a vial after a summer transit out of pure paranoia and it came back 97.4. one vial, one result
people did stockpile before the compounding change and some of them are still working through it

unrelated but the pharmacist i asked was straightforward about supply and had no idea about anything else, which is fair enough
supply steadied here
i was wrong about the compounding change taking effect immediately, it was phased, and i had told three people otherwise
how bad is the heat problem in january really

the last leg to a rural address is where it bakes. the depot and the van are hotter than the plane ever was, i could be wrong

how long is transit into australia running at the moment
transit was 8 days for me and the tracking went dark for a week in the middle, which is normal for that route
nz members have consistently reported worse availability and higher prices than australia. that is anecdote, but it is repeated anecdote
what happened to people who were on a compounded version
the honest summary for australia is that the rules changed under people mid treatment and the room is still sore about it
powder survived
