Hi all,

I have four x new, unused tubes of Flamigel RT cream, if anyone wants them for free? I am happy to post to the UK (all 4 to one person, please).    

I also have loads (20+) of unused 1000ml bottles of Nurticia Nutrison Soya (this is for tube feeding only and is dairy-free - as a Vegan I used it, but the Vitamin D does come from lanolin/sheep's wool). The recipient would need to pay postage for this.   

I realise that most of us can get this stuff on NHS prescription, but it pains me to get rid of it...

I have tried asking locally, Nutricia will only take it for destruction, my nurse specialist team doesn't want it and selling it on eBay (even donating the money) feels wrong and would be time-consuming (I still get fatigued).

This is the last call before it all goes to the pharmacist for disposal.

Thanks 

Steve

  • Hi Steve, I would really appreciate  the flamigel RT cream if it's still available .  I'm in the middle of week 2 buy neck starting to.burn despite using e45 cream.  

  • That's great, Reneebabes. The Flamigel is yours. I just sent you a friend request on this forum, so that you can then private message me your address. Unless you would prefer some other way to provide your address?Thanks

  • Hey Steve

    I was in the exact frame of mind with my Fortisips when i found out they destroy them. I spent a few days ringing everywhere, nursing homes, food banks, posting here and facebook etc and no-one could or would take them so I ended up getting Nutricia to pick them up.

    • I had boxes of This Fortisips because I had to go onto pump feeding.  I tried to find it a home. The boxes were all sealed. Nobody would take it.  The waste is just unbelievable and Nutricia seem to find it very difficult to send the correct orders. At the moment I have 28 bottles of feed and 90 tubes, 30 syringes Ive told them repeatedly I don't need but none delivered for the balloon. Somebody really needs to sort this dreadful wastage out.
