the compounding rule change happened and it did stop the pharmacies that were making it, based on what members reported here at the time

an australian summer transit is the worst cold chain problem discussed in this channel and it is not close

the wait to see somebody was quoted to me as a few weeks privately and much longer publicly, when i asked in 2024

MM

an nz member put their monthly cost at roughly 500 new zealand dollars in 2024. one person at one dose

transit was 5 days for me and the tracking went dark for a week in the middle, which is normal for that route, ill dig out the number

NP

did the compounding rule change actually stop everything or just the big places

[edited]

that was a year ago

clinic versus pharmacy came out roughly even for me once the consult fees were counted in

MU

people did stockpile before the compounding change and some of them are still working through it

BB

i was wrong about the compounding change taking effect immediately, it was phased, and i had told three people otherwise

medsafe not tga

MU

nobody here can tell you what is allowed in australia and the mods will stop that conversation

PP

pharmac in new zealand, has anything moved on funding

MU

temperature controlled shipping into australia exists and the quote i got was more than the peptide, ill dig out the number

MU

several members lost their compounded supply with roughly two months notice. that is the reported experience, not a rule i can quote at you

check thats still true

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

i keep a spare month in the fridge specifically because summer ordering down here is a gamble, we shall see
