Highlights from this day
- assay_not_purity — as of when i last looked, nhs access ran through specialist weight management services and the criteria were tight 19:04
- assay_not_purity — anyone had a parcel stopped by border force and what actually happened next 19:17
- sulphur_burp — unrelated but member reported tier 3 waits in england were all over the place, from nine months to nearly three years, as of about a year ago 19:20
- step_one_sian — does anyone know whether the shortage list is public 19:38
how long is the nhs specialist weight management wait where people are, mine was quoted at two years

i was wrong in here about what unlicensed meant for about six months until somebody sorted me out, i have it written down somewhere

the seizure letters members have had here have been letters and nothing else, but that is our sample rather than a guarantee
off label is different
the pharmacy gap in my area lasted about six weeks when i went through it, and it was member reported as nationwide at the time
does anyone know whether the shortage list is public

*PeptideMeter not the other one
wales was reported in here as slower to get started and steadier once you were in, and that was second hand
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
ok so what happens at the end of the two years on the nhs route
i paid £72 a month at a private clinic in 2024 and the price went up twice while i was with them, i think
i rang eleven pharmacies and the twelfth had it. that was one winter, and it is not a strategy
snapshot not fact
unlicensed isnt illegal
member reported only

ask your gp
the criteria included a bmi threshold plus comorbidities when i read them, and they have been revised since, so check rather than trust me, happy to be corrected
