    So disappointed - GP can't prescribe clomid!

    My GP prescribed me clomid, I took it to the pharmacy and was told that GPs can't prescribe, only specialists, so disappointed, was gonna be a big part of my sway. I googled and it looks like it's Australia-wide

    I did look into it - lots of "scam alert" pages in the google search though, and reports of medicine not arriving or not being genuine

    My GP also told me specialist must prescribed clomid too .
    But i wouldn't lose hope yet im suprised ur GP actually gave it to you .
    Why dont you try different pharmacies it has nothing to do with the pharmacy i suppose and they probably shouldnt be questioning you.
    Maybe go a different area to where they dont know the GP .
    Good luck

    I'm surprised the GP wrote the script to start with. Another pharmacy might work if they don't realise it is just from a GP.

    Thats the law australia wide - it has to be a gynae or obstetrician & even then they wont give it out lightly. It sucks but thats the way it is.
