For those of us who use Monopost...It would be helpful if you could let the rest of us know when your pharmacist has Monopost once more in stock. That way, we know that it's available once more and we can start chasing up! Many thanks.

I was told on Monday by an independent pharmacist that it’s due back In stock in 2 weeks. I will post as soon as I have managed to get some. Hope that helps.

Hi - my pharmacy now has Latanoprost and I am getting mine this morning . It seems that the UK has now received the long awaited delivery and should be now be available more readily.

Hope this helps

Went to Lloyds pharmacy in Asda yesterday(fri) was told out of stock and also with their suppliers so they would have to try and order but couldnt say when I'd get. Went over to Boots who said also out but thought suppliers may now have some but Boots have to supply regular customers first.. I went to a small -difficult to get to small chemist who had them in stock but not the Clinitas dry eye drops i use so have to go back today for the whole prescription. Looks like supply maybe coming back but still hard for us to obtain. Asda pharmacy said " ask your Doctor to issue an alternative"!!!........as if it were so simple!!!!!

Thanks, but from the above posts I can see it is already available so we have to be a bit more patient. It shouldn't be difficult for you to contact your specialist's secretary/PA via phone or email to ask what a suitable substitute would be. I was told for me, Lumigan PF. My pharmacist says they are expecting Monopost any day now

good morning all. I use monopost and have still had to wait nearly a month for my current prescription. The prescription with preservative really irritated my eyes. I’m in West Oxfordshire
