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

SO

an irish member told me their out of pocket cost was noticeably higher than the uk equivalent when they compared in 2024, as of when i last checked

member reported, one person, one region, one month. that is the honest weight of anything in this channel, ireland is a separate system

checked this in 2025 so 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, check rather than assume

about the unlicensed distinction again is the pharmacy supply gap the manufacturer or the wholesalers

nhs route question anyone been asked for anything unusual by a pharmacy lately

SB

the mhra publishes supply notices. whether your pharmacy has read them is an entirely separate matter, that varies enormously by region
