Hi. I read this at the time of posting. Boots were out of tablets and it took 15 calls before I found a pharmacy who had any. On calling them back over my next prescription we discussed the shortage was due to the price being too high for NHS to pay. He said he thought it would get resolved in the next couple of weeks when the price dropped. No shortage, just manufacturer setting price roo high and stock piling as pharmacy said would still be making them! Held to ransom I think the term is. I panicked when I couldn't get them.
