Aquilon series made by AFP Medical.

This shouldn't affect anyone unless they have bought their own, as presumably respiratory teams who have supplied these deficient ones will exchange them for good ones.

Weird how so many respiratory meds and equipment are coming up at the same time.

I bought one about 3 months ago it is one of those sonic just seem to the unlucky one well I will just have to go back on to my omron which is still going well you win some and lose some

NHS cheap investments in equipment and generic medications made I don’t know where that’s why.

You know they put the name of the pharmaceutical firm on the box so you believe that your tablets are made in England but most of them are made in India and nowadays China.

The chemist’s confirmed it to me when I brought back a box of crumbling clarithromycin one day.

Yikes Fran! I know some of my symbicort has been made in Italy. Or thinking about it, maybe China via Italy. Who knows? In our global deregulated world anything can happen these days :(

Yes who knows?? Scary..my respiratory specialist insists on regular meds but you can’t always find them nowadays. Chemist’s only stock what they sell, you have to go to Mayfair I suppose to find them!!

Not what you're looking for?
