Oushk 11 days delay on reorder

[1SillySossij]

Just to warn you that l placed my reorder with oushk on 23rd March, it said the delivery date would be 27th.I have just had an email to say the date will be 3rd April. This is a time sensitive product which you cannot order much ahead of time.
Poor show oushk!

Are you talking about the higher doses with a known shortage?

I scheduled an order from them for tomorrow a few weeks ago and there’s no delay.

You can order ahead with Ouskh btw. I placed my order in Feb, selecting end of March for delivery.

This. Was it for a 12.5mg or 15mg pen? There is a shortage several providers are out of stock.

I have an extra month’s supply in the fridge. I shopped around at the start and made sure I ordered a bit earlier. We go away for long holidays so I knew I would need to do this.

A lot of the pharmacies are having issues with 12.5mg and 15mg and delays with new stock coming in which are outside of their control (I think it depends on which wholesaler they use).

It has happened a few times with the higher doses, and not just with Oushk.

I have read a few people on the higher doses, which seem to be the ones most affected by shortages, have a spare pen at home so they have a buffer for any shortages/delays.

I've never had a delay with Oushk, I tend to order at least a month in advance, but there is a shortage of 12.5 and 15mg currently and new stock's not arriving until 1st April, hence 3rd April delivery. This has happened occasionally in the past and is being experienced by several pharmacies, not just Oushk. Expiry dates on pens are usually several months so it's perfectly OK to order well in advance and you can always ring your pharmacy and check out expiry dates before ordering.

How do you know what dose you want a month in advance?

I guess I was lucky it worked out as planned and pretty much by the book. Went up every month till 10mg, then knew I wouldn't need to go up again till I hit goal weight. You can always change dose if you need to with Oushk, just ring them before delivery due and they'll change the dose if you need them to. Now I'm on maintenance I've got a good feel of what I'm going to be doing for the next 3 months at least.

Thanks for the heads up, I’ve got the 4th dose left in my pen that I’m using this weekend so will order now.
I’ve only ever ordered this way before, for some reason I always thought there was a minimum time between reordering medication so I’ve just always done it like this and it’s always worked but will place my order now. I don’t want to be arsing around with a bonus dose either so hopefully it won’t be weeks late, will just have to see what happens.

With oushk you can order months ahead if you want.

Unfortunately they have a shortage on 12.5 and 15mg as many suppliers do. If it will be an issue contact them, they are very responsive they will probably be able to swap your order to a 10mg pen to avoid a break.

If you look at the comparison sites, they are showing the prices with a line through for the companies out of stock.
I saw a post on TikTok about this earlier this week so ordered one from my normal supplier last night. They had stock and it is arriving tomorrow
