Onureg for CMML - has anyone been prescribed this?

Hello, I am on a 5/28 days cycle of azacitidine for CMML  I have read that there is a tablet  form of Azacitidine. My Consultant says that I cannot be prescribed it, not sure if it my trust which is stopping it.

Has anyone been prescribed this drug, it's called Onureg.

Thanks
