My chemist could only provide me with 6tablets,they said they can't get it anymore,I take the Relon  Chem brand anyone else come across this problem.?

  • Hi Gotchya welcome to the forum. I am sorry to hear about the issue that you are having in sourcing Tamoxifen. I havent heard of any particular issues but do know that some folks were having issues accessing all sorts of different types of drugs.  Are they able to provide you with a different brand and would you be ok with that as that may be the option if this is not available anymore.

  • I am on the same Tamoxifen . Live in SE London and not experienced so far this issue however am having issues getting other medication . Can they not give you a different brand of Tamoxifen ? Or do you prefer to stay on the relonchem ? Some peope prefer to stick to the same one . 
    Hope it gets sorted x

  • Hi Granny,yes they can offer me another but tried the other one before,it doesn't agree with me.

  • Thanks for your reply Penelope,they gave me a different brand some time ago, didn't get on with it.Only have a few days left of my brand,only other advice I have been given,is to contact the Dr.which I will do today.

  • Hi Gotchya

    I have the same problem, did you resolve the supply issue. Can you please let me know. What did you do?

    All chemists in my area cannot get the relonchem brand. I called the company and they said there is no supply issue. 

    I am desperate. 

    Thank you very much for your reply
