Australia supply check-in for today. Is anyone else seeing things ease up or is it still tight?
Australia supply check-in today
Still patchy in my part of NSW, some weeks my chemist has it and the next they don't, so I ring ahead now instead of wasting a trip. Keen to hear if other states are doing better.
Still patchy in my area, my pharmacist said stock comes and goes week to week rather than being fully sorted. I managed to fill last month no drama, fingers crossed that holds. Down about 4 lbs myself so even with the supply stress it feels worth the hassle.
Chemist near me in Melbourne had stock last week for the first time in months, so maybe easing a little. I've dropped 36 lbs while switching pharmacies twice, so worth calling around. Curious what others in smaller towns are seeing.
Down 40 lbs since starting and the only real headache has been pharmacy availability, not the med itself. My local chemist has had gaps some weeks and I've had to ring around a bit. Seems to vary a lot suburb to suburb from what I hear.
Sydney chemist had stock last week after months of calling around, so it does seem to be loosening a bit here. My script finally got filled without the usual runaround, first time since I started this whole journey. Hope the ease-up spreads to everyone else checking in.
Checking in from the US side of things, where my pharmacy has been steady on Saxenda for months now, so hopefully the ripple effect reaches you soon. Keen to hear what Aussie members are seeing on the shelves this week.
Still patchy in my part of QLD, pharmacy had stock one week then nothing the next, so I started calling ahead before driving over. Down 30 lbs through all the chaos so persistence pays off. Keen to hear how NSW and Vic are tracking this week.
Melbourne seems a bit steadier this fortnight, my chemist has had stock two visits in a row which is a first in months. I've kept a few days' buffer in the fridge since I got caught out last time. Congrats on the 28 lbs, and same, ringing ahead saved me so many wasted trips.
