Gsd2011would 2x 50 be the same as 100mcg?

Yes and if you are offered that then I'd take it as there seems to be a problem with obtaining MP at the moment.

Yes, as SeasideSusie says.

I'm literally just back from seeing my GP to ask him to specify MercuryPharma only on my repeat prescriptions as I've learned this year that other brands cause me problems and make me ill.

Phoning my local pharmacy, they can get 25mcg MercuryPharma, but not 100mcg. Boots was the same. Both of them needed a prescription that stated 25mcg, and how many boxes/tablets.

My GP has altered my prescription to say 5x 25mcg MercuryPharma only.

Now I cross my fingers it will appear.

Good luck, make an appt with your GP and get your prescription changed?

At Boots she is very good at getting MP it's just the 100mcg seem to be not available so I'll take the 50s Thank You!

I do prefer Mercury Pharma as it does seem better and other brands seem less effective for me.
