That is interesting I will tell the pharmacist as she has tried three suppliers. They are the special coated ones you get?

[Sandybo in reply to piglette]

Sincere apologies, I’ve just looked to check and they are not the enteric coated ones, I was confusing them with the 2.5 which are,

So sorry.

[piglette in reply to Sandybo]

Back to checking!!

I live in East Yorkshire and I had the same problem a few months ago. I contacted the pharmacist at the doctor's surgery and she sorted it out and I have had no problems since. They are Alliance Gasro resistant Pred 1mg. Best of luck.

I did not realise you can get enteric coated in Canada, you learn something every day.

[PMRCanada in reply to Hunter134]

Didn’t think they were available in Canada?

[Mikb in reply to PMRCanada]

I didn’t either!

Enteric coated? or just 1mg tablets?

I've had no problem here in West Yorkshire. My last repeat prescription was on 20th April, when I received my usual 120 tablets.

This crops up from time to time. Occasionally, I've had to wait a week for the Pharmacy to get hold of them, but not this time.

Best wishes.

[piglette in reply to Rugger]

I will mention that to our pharmacist. Thanks. They have taken five weeks so far.

[Rugger in reply to piglette]

That's unacceptable. My Pharmacy is a local, private one.

[piglette in reply to Rugger]

My pharmacy is a village one although may be linked to a larger company. The pharmacist is outstanding and bends over backwards. She is on her fourth wholesaler for the pred.
