I think it may be a trust or regional issue. I have an ongoing prescription for Naproxin and renewed it last week without issue.
Iām having the same trouble with my prescription, the ongoing comment is the same, big pharmacies stock piling. What a complete and utter fuck-up weāve gotten ourselves into. ****
That is awful.
I have an oncology appointment tomorrow to pick up my some of my supplies. Iām on a 6 week cycle all of a sudden and my buffer stock is 3 months (previously I was on a 3 month supply cycle with a 1 month buffer).
I hope this gets sorted as soon as possible otherwise a lot of people could suffer unnecessarily.

Thereās been a long-running problem with Naproxen https://www.drugshortagescanada.ca/shortage/54297 which is not to say that Brexit worries wonāt be making things worse here. In the past itās been possible to get the drugs if the NHS has been prepared to pay enough https://www.chemistanddruggist.co.uk/news/contractors-shortages-naproxen-killing-us. But I imagine that decisions like that arenāt taken quickly.

Iāve had no problem with my Naproxen supply.
Brexit is a cast iron excuse for these big firms to screw us over. They can squeeze the supply until they get the NHS to pay what they want. Smaller suppliers wonāt be in a position to provide the volumes, so the big suppliers will be squeezing the manufacturers. NOTHING has actually happened yet, so these pills should be as easy to get today as they have been for the last 5 years, except these firms have decided to stockpile it just in case - with the added benefit (no doubt) of prices increasing due to restricted supply.
VTA looks out as well

Mercedes can have one. Specifically my Mercedes. Two bloody days after listing it for sale, the bloody Sensotronic Brake Pump decides to reach the end of its pre-programmed life.
Ā£1300 in total to replace on a car Iām asking Ā£3000 for. I am somewhat grumpy.

Or perhaps dropped off naked (but for his hat) in the middle of Glasgow on a Saturday night.

Oh my god!
This is similar to the original plot of Star Wars, which sadly never made it to the silver screen.
The Rebel Alliance would finally bring down the Death Star by leaving it unattended for 20 minutes in Easterhouse.
