Question about fumaderm

[braye lodge]

Hi Brave lodge!
So sorry for not seeing this earlier. Fumaderm isn't texhnically licenced here I think, but a consultant can prescribe it. I'm fairly certain VHI won't cover it, and unfortunately you can't get the medical card to cover the cost. What you can do, is apply for a drug payment scheme card (DPS card). If you get it, it will mean you won't more than €144 a month for your prescriptions. fumaderm is ridiculously expensive here, so you should get it on the basis alone.  I'm on little above minimum wage, and can't get any other kind of help with it. It is a lot to pay, but if it's possible and you can afford the €144, but if it works, it's worth it.

Hope that helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to message me!

Thanks that's an interesting answer Ccarr I hope that will be interesting to Braye and others who live in Ireland  

Thank you for the info. Hope it is licensed.

So dermatology won't take me back unless I have a good reason. They said I can't skip queues. I'm upset because now i'll be taken off my medication, just when i've been at my best.

That's a shame Braye I don't think you should stop just reduce the dose to give your blood time to recover, then up it again....

Caroline I think has other ideas  

I might have to wait 6 months or more. I won't be given a choice my medication runs out may and i'll be home from April
