Insuman Comb 25 supply problems

[Scubastu]

Hi

Is anyone else having problems getting hold of Insuman Comb 25 insulin?
I put a pescription in last week and the chemist cannot source any, I've been bounced back to my doctors to prescribe an alternative but they are reluctant to change my insulin (which I can understand) they have given me a prescription for the same insulin but in cartidge form, but as of yesterday the chemist hadn't managed to get hold of any.

I was told at the time that there was a batch withdrawn for some reason. Hope you get on ok. I'm on combi25. I was put on it about 4 months ago my hba1c was 39 last week so very happy with it.

Hi, i am having all sorts of problems. I also cannot get a supply of Insuman. i was given an alternative, Humalin 3M, to which i am allergic. I have been backwards and forwards between GP and Community diabetic services[ Bloody useless] I am no further forward and in danger of having NO insulin. What do i do, Go into a coma?
