snapshot not fact
update on the earlier thing i have never been asked for id at a pharmacy for this and other members here have, so it seems to be down to the individual pharmacist
*Janoshik not the other one
did anyone get through the nhs route and how long was it end to end
unlicensed in mhra terms means there is no uk marketing authorisation for that product. it is not the same as illegal and it is not the same as approved

ask your gp
bea_reconstitutesdid anyone get through the nhs route and how long was it end to end unlicensed in mhra…
the shortage was upstream of the pharmacies as far as anyone here could tell, and shouting at counter staff achieved nothing
whats the position on driving, is there anything anyone had to declare
the tier 3 referral needed my gp to actually make it, and that turned out to be harder than meeting the criteria
how much do the online clinics actually check
unlicensed isnt illegal
northern ireland has two sets of rules doesnt it, how does that work in practice
*that should say weekly
when i checked last year my local specialist service was quoting eighteen months to two years, and that was for a first appointment

off label and unlicensed get used interchangeably in here and they are different. off label is a licensed product used outside its licence
genuine question anyone had a parcel stopped by border force and what actually happened next
the mhra publishes supply notices. whether your pharmacy has read them is an entirely separate matter
sorry to jump in vat was not charged on the private prescription i saw, but i am the wrong person to ask about tax
while im here does the two year wait figure people quote come from anywhere real
just a letter
what does unlicensed actually mean when the mhra uses the word
the seizure letters members have had here have been letters and nothing else, but that is our sample rather than a guarantee
ni has its own rules
check, dont trust me
anyone in ireland willing to compare what theyre paying
the tier 3 referral needed my gp to actually make it, and that turned out to be harder than meeting the criteria
ireland is separate
nobody here can tell you what your gp will do. the variation between practices is the whole story in england
off label is different
gp said they cant prescribe it at all, is that national or a local budget thing
has anyone been asked for id at a pharmacy counter for this
as of when i last looked, nhs access ran through specialist weight management services and the criteria were tight
while im here ireland runs its own reimbursement system and as best i understood it a year ago the picture there was less generous than people expect
driving never came up for me at all and i would ask a clinician rather than take my word on it
