Wockhardt supply issue?

[Teddyandolive]

Is anyone aware of a supply issue in UK of Wockhardt Levothyroxine? I was unable to fulfil my usual prescription in England last week, and have faced the same problem attempting to get it instead in Wales this week, with only Teva or Accord offered. A coincidence perhaps with an unlucky choice of pharmacies - or a broader issue?

I had Wockhardt delivered a few days ago. I think there are shortages in certain pharmacies getting enough range in their stock rather than actual problems with suppliers. Every week someone is told their brand is unobtainable which just means the pharmacy didn’t get a delivery this time.

I’m the other way round, last month I was given Wockhardt when I prefer Accord!

from conversations I have had with many pharmacies in my area due to my brands being messed about, it's more about money than supply issues. Seems most are required (by their HQ) to obtain the cheapest they can find. Usual story, money and sod the patient

same here, my mercurypharma isn’t on my pharmacy’s list of suppliers, they could order it as a special !! But won’t because it will cost them more so just give you what they have even though it’s written on my repeat prescription which brand I need 😡
