Easy mistake. I have always thought they should have given them completely different names. That is why I made this thread Dovobet And Dovonex (What's the difference ?) in the hope it would teach newbies to the treatments the difference.

By what I can figure out it's only the UK that are thinking of this Bad idea at the moment, but it could be a tester by Leo Pharma to see if they can push more over the counter.

Oh that is a shame but at least they are asking what the people think, though I doubt many will add their voice and if one gets through they won't stop adding others to the list I'm sure.

At least we have it published here, it's now up to the British psoriasis patients to decide if it's worth giving their opinion.

I'm giving my opinion Big Grin


But they are stopping prescribing, paracetamol, NHS cost I'm sure I read £7.80 a box over the counter £0.45p

Other things they are stopping are gluten free foods, omega 3 supplements and fish oils , cough medicine, travel vaccine, Co-proxamol , indigestion and suncream

These things I agree although gluten free foods will hit celiacs hard, I suspect

This might backfire- why pay for something when there is a alternative for free. Oh, the problems this causes.
