Alprostadil (MUSE) availability

My wife and I have had all sorts of problems with availability of some medication recently.  My pharmacist thinks that someone is hoarding because of Brexit!  He may be right who knows.  I you have a package insert try contacting the company that either makes or supplies the medication.  A few years ago the company themselves were only supplying hospitals for 2 months as an accounting exercise!  Always worth checking with them.

Hope you find some soon.

I managed to get a few more from the hospital pharmacy today - they thought they'd run out, but managed to find some.

Any update on this. I haven't been able to source MUSE since April am told its a manufacturing problem. Back in April was told it'd be available by June but that hasn't happened

I wrote to the address on the information leaflet, but they didn't even have the courtesy to reply.

I emailed the ED nurse, but she hasn't replied either. I think I must have become invisible to the NHS

I've just been told the same thing by pharmacy2u that there's a manufacturing problem with this product so I tried another pharmacy and same response they were told the earliest that this product would be available will be the end of September! was told to try an alternative i said there isn't one! I've contacted uclh hospital were I had my penile implant op and asked if they can find out what's occurring I will update you if I find some answers 

I realise that this is an old post, supplies have been almost non existent since then -- BUT - for the past month my local pharmacy has been able to obtain supplies --  !!The UK suppliers say that supplies are OK at present.
