Yes. My mum couldn't get efudix at all ,been several months now.

I've had 2 patches 'burnt' off with liquid nitrogen - years ago- didn't return. But now have had 3 more v small patches , nose, knee and side. 2 have resolved and gone using hyaluronic acid serum  and heavy moisturiser, both bought otc in beauty isle,  tho they may have just gone anyway. 

We actually have a tube of efudix that I myself was prescribed a few months ago for some sun damage. It worked so quickly I used only a small amount. The use by date is actually 2026. Does anyone think that it would be a good idea to use? All we need then is the other cream . Can't see any problems using it. Thanks for replying best wishes to all

I'd check if it's the same strength and if it has to be used within a certain time after opening 

You are supposed to discard any leftover Efudix after 3 months because of the possibility of bacterial contamination once tube is opened. However I have used Efudix 9 months after opening without any problem. The potency does not seem to be reduced. Given that there is none available it may be an option to use that part used tube. Ed

That's what I was thinking. I used a tiny bit only and I would say over 90 per cent is unused. If they know it's not available why not discuss other options? Anyway this week we will have a word with dermatology. You see you have to use another cream to prepare the area for the chemotherapy cream,as yet that hasn't arrived !

Thanks very much for your advice
