Has anyone got one of these yet which will remove the golden dose? ( uk )

Nope. They’re not even being manufactured yet so don’t panic.

I have just received a pen from Medex without the golden dose! Grrr!
5mg expires June 27

I think I read somewhere that they are starting with the 5mg so maybe jump up a pen the next time. It’s super annoying.

I have just received a 12.5 modified one

Yes I've had 5mg of the new style.

LividSun · 10/06/2026 16:46

If anyone knows of a supplier still on old style 5mg, I'm looking...

Nomorechocs · 10/06/2026 19:20

I emailed Medicine Marketplace yesterday to ask if they were sending out the new style pens for 10 and 12.5mg. This was their reply:
Hi we now have all new stock pens currently. You can place your order via the new website

I’m not sure this is accurate - surely they can’t be sending out the new style pens for all doses already.

OrangeWire · 10/06/2026 19:48

Ah this makes sense as I’ve just had a 5 delivered and it was the new style! But everybody else I know seems to be getting “old” pens (not on 5)

itsanamething · 11/06/2026 18:34

There's a sub Reddit detailing which pharmacies people have been getting the new pens from. Lots have received a 5 mg and only one or two a 12.5 mg so far.

I ordered 7.5mg to avoid getting new pen

Blushingm · 11/06/2026 21:04

How do you tell the difference? My new 5mg looks the same as the last one

SilenceInside · 11/06/2026 21:14

They look exactly the same, except that there is less medication in the glass vial part. The grey plunger is therefore further down the pen and there is a small black plastic spacer behind the plunger.

Squirrelchops1 · 11/06/2026 21:14

Yes medexpress 10mg

Nomorechocs · 13/06/2026 16:24

I ordered a 10mg pen from Medicine Marketplace on Thursday. It came today and is the old style pen.

MeridaBrave · 16/06/2026 18:56

I saw on Reddit that currently it’s only 5mg (most places) and 12.5mg new pen. There is a whole thread on Reddit - I switched to 7.5mg!

NotAChanceIn · 16/06/2026 21:47

Also seen it's the 5mg mostly affected so I've gone for the 7.5mg and happily dosing the 5mg. Keeps me going for 7 weeks which is fine for my prescription within 8 weeks (if I ignore the stores in my fridge)
