My clinic have not prescribed enough Fyremadel and I now won't receive their new prescription in time - so cheesed off. My friend advised that Fyremadel is the same as Cetrotide. I've been looking on Ebay as Cetrotide is more available but I want to make sure she's right - I can't find out the info from just Googling - help!

Hi not sure if they are the same but best to confirm with your clinic. I just had my transfer on Tuesday. I have 1 cetrotide 250 injection... if you want it. That is if you are close to Cambridgeshire... inbox me you need it.

I think they do the same thing (stop you ovulating) but they are completely different drugs and not sure they can be used interchangeably x

My clinic confirmed that they are the same and you can change half way through, which is just as well really!!

Can you start with what they gave you and ask for a top up prescription? My clinic failed to order my drugs 3 times - I was furious. Stork pharmacy got them out to me in 24 hrs, just in time. The clinic did say they have some at the clinic for emergency, so ask them if you need to.

3 times, crikey I would be furious too!!! My clinic is in Denmark so I can't readily get there and as I need to show a hard copy of a prescription to a pharmacist I'm having to find a work around. Not pleased at all. I sent a shirty email to them but there is no real acknowledgement that it is their fault. Thankfully tracked some down on Ebay that I can pick up tomorrow.
