17.01.2025 - Sulfasalazine

We are aware that some patients are struggling to get hold of sulfasalazine EN 500mg tablets from community pharmacies.

The following suggestions may help:

  1. Ensure it is prescribed generically as “sulfasalazine EN tabs 500mg” (Not “Salazopyrin” or “Pfizer” brand)
  2. Tablets are available from AAH and Unichem - patients should enquire at their pharmacy whether they can order from these suppliers.

26.11.2024 - Tyenne

There is a shortage of Tyenne pens. Normal delivery frequencies have now resumed for existing patients but, until February/March 2025, Sciensus will only be offering new patients pre-filled syringes and not pens.
