I have 2 weeks supply left which effectively gives me 19 days as it takes around 5 days to clear your system when you've been taking it regularly for a while.
The problem is that the production of this has been switched from one drug company to another without the new company having the license to produce/sell it in the UK.
Only the 200mg dose is licensed in the UK.
Apparently there is a very complicated procedure by which Doctors can prescribe 500mg tablets which you then take 3 times a week but this currently has to be imported from France and although it is unlicensed, some health authorities have given permission for this to be prescribed. I am trying to convince my Doctor to prescribe this but he cannot find the necessary permission for our health authority area. There is apparently no 200mg available anywhere in the UK now. (Mrs T took my prescription with her to England this week and was unable to get it there either).
Has anyone else had the same problem and if so, have you convinced your Doc to prescribe the 500mg?
Do any of you know of any other solution?
Tony
