Lloyds Direct have not been able to get stock of Nebivolol for about 2 months. Has anyone else had issues?

So sorry to hear that, cant they offer you any alternative?

Do you mean you have run out of medication or will shortly do so? My suggestion is try another pharmacist (you are entitled to do so if the first pharmacist can't fulfill your prescription) and/or talk to your prescribing physician to find out what alternatives are available.

The last 2 boxes I have had to go to a different pharmacy. Lloyds Direct cannot get any further stock until October at the earliest. I am changing pharmacy next time as they do have stock now.

If you have any issues with the supply of a medication, contact the manufacturer directly as in this way you should get to know why/if supplies are limited, and how they can help. Details for the manufacturer can be found on the packaging and in the accompanying PIL.

I've had the same problem getting my oxycodone. I have rung round evry single pharmacy in a 10 mile radius. AT one I was lucky to find someone had enough in stock to allow me to last until it became available but it was a national shortage. Pharmacies all get stock from different suppliers. The bigger ones tend to use several suppliers; the smaller ones usually stick to just one supplier. SO phone round and use the one that can actually get it. IT's a bit of a nuisance for the GP to have to send a new prescription but they won't refuse

I had problems with Lloyds Direct claiming they could not get hold of medicines. Try Pharmacy2u they seem much more reliable.

Yes, the idea that a large pharmacy cannot supply a routine med for so long seems odd. I have now confirmed stock at Whitworths so they will get my next order. Hopefully they will have the other 5 items too 🙄.

yes, had the same problem with 2.5mg, no stock since August. Have been offered 5mg which can apparently be broken into 4, as I have to take 3.75mg

It's a strange one. I have obtained 2.5mg from both Tesco pharmacy and Whitworths since without issue.
