Hi,

I have ran out of Flamigel and the doctor gave me a prescription which I didn’t manage to pick up.

local pharmacy won’t be able to get anything in till the 29th December.

is there any other the counter products I can use, my chest has started to heat up and stinging feeling.

Kind regards,

Antonia

  • Hi Antonia and thank you for your post,

    I realise it is four days since you posted so you may have got this sorted already.

    I  am sorry, but without knowing your exact situation or why you have been prescribed flamigel I am unable to recommend specific creams or medicines over the counter. What Lucie our moderator has advised is exactly what I would have suggested. The only other thought is, if the prescription is still needed, if there was another pharmacy that you could try.

    I do hope you have managed to get your prescription sorted and that you can get some relief from your symptoms. Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Take care, Antonia, all the best
