Hi guys, thought i would share this news with you all, Aralax suppositories are now £32.50 a box!
Guess my doctor cant give me any grief now, you would have thought it was coming out of his own pocket.
I am telling everyone cause a few had their prescription requests from their doctor turned down because of the high price, not anymore.

over £3 a suppository is still way too pricey to be realistic! 3p would be more like it! Magic Bullets come in a box of 100 supps for about £40 - much better price. just get a friend to post them to UK.

HI, i was using magic bullets before using these, i told my doctor i was using them, he said they are not licensed for use in the uk. it was getting v difficult to get them as every time i had them shipped it was costing more and more coz they added 'import duties', anyway talking to my pharmacist freind she said if you ever have a prob with magic bullets you would be screwed because you shouldnt be using them in the uk.
trouble is i think that we have all been used to supps being really cheap as all you do is stick them up your ***, times move on, so does bowel care, non of us were really happy with what the nhs could offer us before, like dulcolax supps and glycerin, magic bullets are the best thing but not legal which is a shame, aralax must have cost a lot to develop especially in this area of medicines, magic bullet has been going for years so the manufacturing costs are low, compared to peristeen these are really cheap to use. i know which i prefer to use.

if youhave a friend somewhere in USA, get your m/bullets posted to him/her by your supplier. s/he can then post privately to you marking box valued at $30 approx. to avoid import duties. aralax are good, yes, perhaps a little slower-acting because they contain less bisacodyl but simply a lot more expensive. NHS will supply aralax of-course but you'll need about 2 boxes a month @ £70 = £840 pa to NHS. i buy 2 x100 boxes of m/bullets at about £80 pa, privately.
