No supply problems reported
Pharmacy stock reports
What registered pharmacists say is on their shelves right now, checked against the AHPRA register before publishing. The official data above tells you about Australia; this tells you about particular pharmacies.
Seen it in stock, or missed out?
Reports from other patients about what their local pharmacy had on the shelf. This sits alongside the official data above until a verified pharmacy stock feed is in place.
If your medicine is affected
Start with your pharmacist — they can check other suppliers, order it in, and for the oestrogen patches can often supply an approved alternative without a new prescription. Filling your script a few days early, rather than on the last day, gives everyone room to move.
