my A1c moved and I cannot work out whether Australia is why

PBS

Right, the TGA question again, but with numbers this time.

I have 13 data points over 16 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is chance, and boring enough that nobody is going to screenshot it, which is usually a good sign.

The thing I would flag for anyone new: the effect I am describing showed up at week 58, not week 12. People give up long before the interesting part.

Interested in whether this matches other people's logs or whether I am an outlier.

Yeah, the 2024 rule change was sudden.

Cite the TGA notice?

TGA shortage notices are temporary

Strongly agree. AU and NZ differ.

This is an urgent-care question wearing a forum question's clothes. Please contact a clinician rather than waiting for replies.

Adding to this: shortage is doing more work than the comment implies.

Small correction: the trial was 11 weeks, not 38. Does not change your point but people will quote it.

Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with TGA, not with what you concluded.

u/devils_advocate_d3 points·4 months ago

AU and NZ are different systems, say which

This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.

unfunded-means-full-price is the NZ reality

Disagree on that part. 99.0% and 98.9% on the same vial is normal.

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.

No.

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
