I believe your DR or prescriber can override the pharmacist by writing on prescription ' no generic substitution 'Maybe a call to them or if unable to get through,111.

One or 2 of our members here are sensitive to fillings in some meds I hope they can confirm the above.

When I had trouble getting a particular make of pill that suited me, I rang the makers and found out which pharmacies in my area stocked it and also who the wholesaler was. I've found Boots very good at getting the make of pills I like.

It may be an idea to ring around the pharmacies in your area and see if any one of them could get that make for you.
