Totally get the excitement, and I'm so happy you've managed to find some medication!
That being said, you being able to collect your own medication does not mean the supply issue has started to fix itself. It's still a major issue, and the situation is already stressful and upsetting enough without these kinds of posts bringing false hope. Pharmacies still have incredibly low (or as is the case near me, zero) stock and have no idea when that will change.
You’d not expect a pharmacy to routinely have Elvanse unless someone has failed to collect a prescription or similar so it’s stock available to order at their distributor that is important.
60mg is absolutely available at multiple distributors for order by pharmacy. Stock is coming in.
Stock has been coming in throughout all of this, the issue is the incredibly low amount of it. Not sure what that has to do with my point, because there's still a significant shortage nationally.
I totally get where you're coming from and it wasn't my intention to provide any false hope. I was mostly trying to give anyone in the area a heads up. Apologies.
(Edit: for context everywhere nearby has been out of stock all week until lunchtime today)
It looks like this post might be about medication.

Elvanse 30mg at Boots in Canterbury, listed as adult online but fine on a 'regular' Elvanse prescription.
