The pharmacist should order stock in for you if they don’t have it. Can you try another pharmacy? I don’t think you’ll be able to get an alternative unless it’s been prescribed. My husband is on entresto and I don’t know of any close alternatives, although there are several doses of the drug. Could you get a lower dose and take more, or get a higher dose and take less?

You need your GP to advise as they can consider any other side effects due to other pills you may be on

Hi my pharmacist usually give them my medical details, so that they know that I actually need it. I think some places have been ordering it to send abroad so the distributors now need to know it’s actually for a client that needs it in this country.

When my pharmacist is away and a new one takes over they always tell me they can’t get it so I explain what they should do and it miraculously appears the next day. All the best

Yes, try another pharmacy and if that fails contact your gp

If you are on the high/medium dose ask if they have the smaller one, any is better than none.
