Purchasing visanne online?

A few brits on this forum seem to be obtaining visanne online. Can somebody recommend a reputable site and tell me how you go about getting a prescription?

I'm 29, have had leuparin twice and am back to tremendous pain. Visanne sounds like a longer term treatment and I'm desperate to try.

No I don't think anyone on this forum is purchasing Visanne online. Nor would I ever recommend that to anyone. Soooooo risky - you have no guarantee of it being stored at the correct temperature in the warehouse or in transit to your house - no idea if it is a faulty batch that has been recalled, and no idea if it even the real deal or some other damaging tablets being passed off as Visanne.

There are members of this forum who live in Europe and Singapore and Canada and Australia too -where the drug is available on prescription from their doctors. I have certainly never seen any mention of anyone buying it from any online websource. I am also quite certain that the charity that runs this forum would not condone such activities either - and they monitor posts on the forum and also the private messages.

It might be possible to obtain this on prescription from your GP depending on your local NHS area and whether they will fund it - some definitely do not.

Or contact an Endo specialist in private practise- or check if you can be referred to any of the clinical trials involving the drug.

If you use google to search, then don't look for Visanne - instead use the drug's name

'Dienogest'. You get a lot more results looking up the drug name rather than the brand name of Visanne.

Hi Marellocherry - did you ever find a way to get Visanne in the UK? I was prescribed it when living overseas and it was amazing but now I'm back in the UK I can't find it anywhere. I'd be really happy to pay for it privately if it's not on the NHS but don't know where to start!

Thanks!
