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

Highlights from this day
- cold_pack_carla — genuine question a parcel of mine sat in a queensland depot for 2 days in summer, and it tested fine afterwards, which surprised me the compounding rule change… 21:45
- meniscus_mel — coming back after 16 months, is supply any better in australia now 22:26
- meniscus_mel — the honest summary for australia is that the rules changed under people mid treatment and the room is still sore about it 22:59
sorry to jump in tga shortage notices were live for long stretches while i was following it. whether they are now i genuinely do not know, i could be wrong
genuine question a parcel of mine sat in a queensland depot for 2 days in summer, and it tested fine afterwards, which surprised me
the compounding rule change happened and it did stop the pharmacies that were making it, based on what members reported here at the time

is nz supply tied to australian supply in practice
an nz member put their monthly cost at roughly 500 new zealand dollars in 2024. one person at one dose, ask me again in a month
three gel packs
update on the earlier thing the pharmacist i asked was straightforward about supply and had no idea about anything else, which is fair enough, ask me again in a month
clinic versus pharmacy came out roughly even for me once the consult fees were counted in
i keep a spare month in the fridge specifically because summer ordering down here is a gamble
wouldnt risk reconstituted

coming back after 16 months, is supply any better in australia now

a member in perth and a member in melbourne reported completely different transit times on the same supplier in the same month
the last leg to a rural address is where it bakes. the depot and the van are hotter than the plane ever was, thats just me
dont order in january
the depot is the problem
the honest summary for australia is that the rules changed under people mid treatment and the room is still sore about it
