Fiasp nationwide shortage

[astle9]

Pharmacist told me saturday that they could not provide my insulin due a nationwide shortage, anyone else?

Do you have an alternative? Surely you can't be left with no insulin? Are you in the UK?

I have not had trouble getting Fiasp. However, if I did, I would be happy to temporarily use NovoRapid. You may need to talk to you GP to change the prescription.
Humalog is another option.

I was told by my Pharmasist it takes a couple more days to get hold of so make sure to order in advance. I use an independent village pharmacy so if they can get it, anyone can.

I've been waiting 2 weeks for regular prescription of Fiasp vials, and been told there is a national shortage.

Edited to update that I got them this afternoon.
