Oushk have now confirmed they’re limited in what they can buy, presumably from the wholesalers. So they’re just exploiting this for their own gain. Sickening.

Pill sorted have recently updated their ordering notification as it wasn’t showing it on Friday to say you have to buy at the September price rise and IF they get their stock in and can deliver in August then they will refund you the difference.

So basically they will probably just hold off sending you your pen for the official 1st September rise and then charge the higher rate, that seems so wrong, they are on my never use again list for their rubbish packaging anyway but this takes the mick

Juniper have this on their site (photo pending). Pretty shocking as they don’t prescribe the 7.2mg WeGovy as it’s not licensed.

Goodness, Juniper are being absolutely shameless. They are using stats from the 2025 study on the 7.2mg dose of Wegovy to show the two drugs as equivalent. Despite of course not currently being able to sell it.

(Those citations go nowhere, unsurprisingly.)

Not really sure what this actually means, but suggests maybe more developments on price (hopefully good) - at least for some pharmacies. Certainly it seems worth taking a 'wait and see' approach until we know for sure what prices are going to be, before doing anything drastic like switching or quitting MJ.

I've just been to my local pharmacy where I normally order from and he confirmed that they will be getting rebate monthly for orders.

I was pleasantly surprised with the new pricing. Yes it is more expensive but not ridiculously so and there's not all the hassle with deliveries etc. You just pick up your pen that has been correctly stored in the fridge.

If you pick a local pharmacy that has buying power - i.e. several hundred branches - this could be the way forward for many? I'm going to stick with my local pharmacy going forward.

I have an order in for 12.5mg from Med express too. Not heard anything since Thursday lunchtime. If they told me they had 10mg in stock I would switch it to that.

Hod yes me to, just have a pen! I'd even be happy with 7.5 and come down a dose. It's making me stressed

Apologies. Double post.

FoxRedPuppy · 19/08/2025 14:11

My pen has been approved today by Asda, which I placed on Thursday. I do like them as I can click and collect, so much better than trying to work out if you will be home.

Their fb group is currently offline.

It came back this morning- no idea if it’s still live or not. They’ve really restricted what you can say though, and things like if you @ Hira you’ll be banned

RelaxedOddish · 19/08/2025 14:34

Has anyone that ordered from simple online pharmacy heard anything yet?

I ordered Friday. Got confirmed it was approved yesterday and it's saying waiting for final check. Been 24hrs now. Hoping it's despatched today and delivered tomorrow as on holiday from Thursday!

MissMogs · 19/08/2025 15:33

Lotus now showing as “completed” after placing order yesterday, but no actual emails to confirm it’s been posted!

Gingercar · 19/08/2025 15:39

I actually got through to chemists4U on the phone today. I placed my bundle order on Thurs and haven’t heard anything. She said they just have a huge volume of orders, and I should hear from a clinician either today or tomorrow. She said they’d probably want a pic of my last prescription (thought it was strange that they didn’t ask for that when they asked for photos of me). But she said their stocks were good, so not to worry.

DancingBeeGirl · 19/08/2025 15:50

Not sure why my above post was deleted. I was only saying that my order from Lotus that I placed yesterday was confirmed. I’ve had the email.

KrankyKumquat · 19/08/2025 16:02

@MagicaMagical
It says quite clearly that the date for compliance is 31/07/25, that's when they would be 'reinspected' or have checks done. So not 6months and as they're still very much in operation, I think we can safely assume they've met all of the action points. This is a cause for celebration as no one, surely, would want to see thousands of patients left without a supplier of prescription medication or a relatively young, successful company which now employs dozens of people, get shut down?

Doggymummar · 19/08/2025 16:16

That is good news. I only joined them for maintenance from p2U as they didn't do maintenance doses so not one of the fan girls but they've been OK.

In that case I will have my money back

I normally use this supplier and got my latest order delivered today, so I wouldn't worry too much.

sweetpickle2 · 19/08/2025 16:45

Completed on Lotus just means they've received your order I think @MissMogs- mine has shown that since the order went in.

Yes, as @sweetpckle2 says, I don't think Lotus has any status lower than 'completed'. So it starts there as soon as you send your order in. That's my experience anyway.

50somethingHRTaddict · 19/08/2025 17:06

Still nothing from my usual supplier, IQ Dr, who I will be leaving ASAP as they have showed zero loyalty to existing customers... No correspondence and pulled their discount on Friday AM.

Ordered from Cloud on 17/08 and still under review

I feel like a Mounjaro gun is being held to my head 😂

Maybe the anxiety will help the scales this week 🤣
