Lubion Prescription

Hello Ladies

My partner picked up my Lubion prescription today, from Asda as they were cheaper than other places. Only problem is there are no needles? I am confused 🤔 it’s the first time we will be using Lubion so we have no previous experience ... can we get the needles from the NHS?

All advice welcome 🤗

You'll def need the needles and bin, either ask asda for them or clinic/EPU X

The needles you need are the same as the ivf meds ones, long thick attached to the syringe,then replaced with the smaller thinner one for injecting x

Try at a regular pharmacy. I don't live in the UK but when we had to buy some extra needles we got them at a pharmacy no bother. Good luck with it xxx

Green needles to suck lubion into injection, then swap green needle to yellow for injection as it's thinner. Same needles used by IVF clinics for most other injections. We had to order online as Boots wouldn't provide any either and our clinic doesn't have any ivf meds on site. When he returns this evening I can give you the online place we ordered them. x

Thank you very much for your help ladies. We do have a lot or syringes and needles provided with our Buserelin so if there the same for the Lubion then we should be ok 😊👍 will check with the hospital when I go in for the endo scratch 🙈 ... even though we have done the fresh cycle the FET and extra meds is throwing me all out!
