I ordered my usual batch of creon capsules this week and when I went to the pharmacy to collect they could only give me one box instead of the normal six. They said there's a UK supply shortage. Has anyone else found this?

I was given my first Creon prescription yesterday late afternoon and collected it at noon today. It was only 48 capsules though and nothing was said about a shortage.
 
I've just collected my 2nd prescription of just under 2 boxes. Got it from a small pharmacy 2 days after requesting it.
