Unused Menopur 1200

6 Replies

Hi all.

Just wondering if anyone knows if pharmacies buy medication back?

I was advised to purchase extra menopur yesterday to keep me over the weekend however after this mornings scan my cycle has been cancelled & was our last one so wont be needing the extra menopur bought.

I do have a feeling that no one does buy it back but worth a shot as its very expensive & alot of money to lose 😢.

Thanks & hope everyone us doing well on their journeys xx

Hello, I don't know for sure but when I worked in a pharmacy they only took medicines back for the purpose of safe disposal (not always great to put in landfill). I think maybe it might be too risky for them to resell medicines. But could be wrong, might be worth a try. Sorry to hear your cycle has been cancelled 😟 Tough when it's costly too. xxx

Hi there, if in the UK I’m afraid they won’t be able to. They can’t resell as it’s illegal. Is this definitely your last cycle? Really sorry to hear it’s been cancelled xx

If you’re willing to mail it, I will take it! Not sure how this works, but let me know if there’s a good way to pm you.
