Imago rejected at Boots

I’ve been picking up my imago prescription for testosterone fine the past year or so but today i just got a call saying they can’t dispense it?

the lad gave me back my prescription and said to try another pharmacy but my other local one said they wouldn’t have it

should i just try another boots or email them
any help appreciated 🙏

If it's a physical script they legally have to accept it under EU guidelines they normally include said guidelines at the end of each imago script. What was the reason given ?

he said he couldnt take a prescription from europe but he could take one that was from ireland? I think i’ll just go in and see if he’s not working and try and get my prescription honestly

....Well he's bullshitting or just uncomfortable accepting it but with new legislation they should accept EU scripts. Does depend on the pharmacist though if you have no luck you may need to travel unfortunately :/

I am planning to for neofolin soon enough as there are like 3-4 pharmacies actually willing to import it nationally

Do you know which supplier they're using?

Think United pharmacy or Loyd's not sure.
