clinic versus pharmacy came out roughly even for me once the consult fees were counted in
the compounding rule change happened and it did stop the pharmacies that were making it, based on what members reported here at the time
quick one the seasonal thing works both ways. a july parcel into australia is an easy parcel

temperature controlled shipping into australia exists and the quote i got was more than the peptide, thats one data point

nz members have consistently reported worse availability and higher prices than australia. that is anecdote, but it is repeated anecdote

transit was 18 days for me and the tracking went dark for a week in the middle, which is normal for that route
tga and the shortage notices, is that still going where people are
while im here did the compounding rule change actually stop everything or just the big places
i was wrong about the compounding change taking effect immediately, it was phased, and i had told three people otherwise
did the compounders give any notice before they stopped
i pay for the fastest service in summer purely to shorten the hot part, not to get it any sooner
coming back to this three gel packs and a foil liner got mine through a january delivery. the packs arrived liquid and the powder was fine
keep a spare month
shipping into an australian summer, what do people actually do about it
the last leg to a rural address is where it bakes. the depot and the van are hotter than the plane ever was
three gel packs
supply steadied here
summer is the risk

anyone shipping to a rural australian address, does the last leg kill it
a parcel of mine sat in a queensland depot for 2 days in summer, and it tested fine afterwards, which surprised me
pbs is diabetes only afaik
[edited]the honest summary for australia is that the rules changed under people mid treatment and the room is still sore about it
the wait to see somebody was quoted to me as a few weeks privately and much longer publicly, when i asked in 2024
the depot is the problem
is there any reimbursement in nz at all or is it fully private
