Finding 15mg pen at a good price - new supplier

10 replies

Serenitewobble · 06/06/2025 07:58

Morning
Just as my title says I can’t seem to get a 15mg pen at a decent price.
My usual supplier says the distributors are only giving prescribers a few each as availability has gone down.
Am in Northern Ireland.
I’m 20lbs away from goal so I’m worried getting a new supplier now will be tricky as I might not be in BMI area.
My usual supplier suggests getting 10mg pens but this works out more expensive.
Any help would be appreciated please

Have you tried looking on monj.co.uk??

Yes I have thanks - a lot if the cheaper supplier seem to be out of stock.
Where are people ordering from please?

I now order from Simple online pharmacy. They price match but their delivery is only £4 so was £139 inc delivery for 15mg. The pen has to be in stock with the other supplier though. I filled the request on medicine marketplace to be notified as soon as they had stock, Then emailed Simple with screenshots of price and notification of stock before ordering and they sent me a code to use at checkout.

I used to order from IQ Doctor who price matched MM but that includes the delivery cost so 15mg was £145. They didn’t ask for proof that it was in stock.

IQ Doctor wouldn't price match Medicine Market Place on the 15mg when I tried last week.
They said that they had now stopped doing this on the 12.5 & 15 due to the shortages. You might find that the other pharmacies that would usually price match are following suit.
Seriously considering moving to Medicine Market Place next month as it's £30 cheaper than IQ.
I have an extra pen (hopefully 2 when Curate get their act together) in the fridge so can wait a while for the 15 to come in stock.

@Redlightbulb Thanks for the info. I didn’t know that IQ Doctor had stopped. Simple price matched to MM 5 days ago

Thanks everyone.
Will medicine Marketplace accept a written script from my old supplier for you think?
Do they ask for photos etc
I have used IQ Dr in the past but got a local supplier (which was so much easier than these online checks )
Now I’ve just gotten into the normal BMI category I’m worried they won’t prescribe to me but I’ve still a couple stone to loose

I think all prescribers ask for photos etc if it’s your first order with them but I’ve only ever price matched to MM. I’ve just received an email from them saying they have 15mg back in stock too. They should still prescribe if you provide evidence of already being on the medication and your bmi is still within a healthy range.

Just to add Weprescribe also price match MMP, but the cost with postage. So a 15mg pen would be £145. I too use Simple Online Pharmacy now but am only on 10mg (long may it continue!) So price matching hasn't been impacted by shortages.

@Redlightbulb IQ replied to my friend a few days ago saying they would price match 15mg to MM but by the time they replied she had ordered with simple.

@Time4changeagain
Thanks. I will try to get them to price match one more time at the start of July as would rather not have the hassle of moving but will state that if they don’t price match I will move to MM & will likely stay there (which is true)
MM do regular TikTok lives & the pharmacist said they had enough stock at the last drop for new customers & expect it would be the same next month. They are not doing preorders anymore but one you have placed an order & paid that pen is then allocated to you. They don’t let you order when they don’t have stock unlike Curate who I have just used.
