Contraceptives and other medication

Went to get my prescription filled only to be told there’s a national shortage of Noriday along with other contraceptive pills.

Check with your GP that you aren’t affected or you may need to get an alternative. GPs are still prescribing for medication that isn’t available.

And this is nothing to do with Brexit as far as I know.

Yeah, noriday is out just now, you should check with your local pharmacy in plenty of time so that they can sort out an alternative for you.

It's absolutely not Brexit related.

Just checked online and my request has been rejected. Wonder if this is why. Definite call tomorrow

Also, there's no direct alternative brand to Noriday, so expect to be prescribed something different.

Women can be taking this for reasons other than birth control believe it or not.

Being a woman just seems to be hard work. I don't know how you put up with it.

The pill turned me into a complete nutter and I bled non stop. Can't take anything now.
