Advice - where to get Decapeptyl injection

[Kmcdon]

Just won if anyone can suggest anything to help. I’ve got to get the above injection in a couple of weeks. I normally get the clinic to do it but wondering if there are any other options? I’m being treated abroad but my clinic has sister clinic here which I use for scans and blood tests. I can only get an appointment for 8.45 on the day I need injection and at that time the clinic is pretty much a four hour round trip. Just wondering if anyone has any other suggestions or places that would give me this?

thanks xx

morning, I’ve been in this situation too. I’ve ordered it via my local pharmacy and contacted my GP who booked me in with the nurse who gave it to me.

Thanks for your reply. That would be great but would you be able to get an if you are having treatment privately? Xx

im with a private clinic in Spain and they have a link with my former clinic in UK. My Spanish clinic send scripts to me and I send to my GP who signs them for ordering with pharmacy as my former UK clinic is a two hour drive away. I got Decapeptyl a few weeks ago it cost £100. My GP kindly got a nurse to give it to me, I’m lucky to have GP that has been able to fit me in

Hi, check Madesil pharmacy in London around Marylebone High str and if your clinic sends them electronically the prescription and posts the original to them, they might be able to help and then schedule with GP for administering. I have done the same and worked ok.

Thanks. I'm in Scotland so not sure if they would do that. Were you in London?

Yes, I am London but if you can’t find anything closer to you worth calling them and seeing if they can deliver..

Hi there,

I also have used that injection in my last 5 transfers and during stims but I always self administered the injection. So I just got the prescription from my clinic based in Prague and get my pharmacy here to provide me with the meds. Can you do that ? Least you can give yourself the injection at the exact time .

Thanks everyone for the advice, Really appreciated! I’m fine getting the medication just the administering I’m a bit nervous about. I have done it by myself before and I think I’ll try or try to get a private GP to do it. I just can’t face the big drive to the clinic! Xx
