We urgently need some help sourcing Bicillin LA (Benzathine Benzylpenicilin). My wife has been on it for some time, and now our usual online supplier (G-P) has none in sotck and is unable to get any , so I need to find another supplier urgently.

If anyone is able to help, please PM me urgently.

Thanks

Notice to alice... Sixgoofy wanted me to let you know that she is unable to get online at this time. She has no information for you regarding bicillin.

Good luck in your search! [Smile]

From time to time I check the GP website.
Past weeks the "for patients" part would disappear.
Now it's back. Wonder what happened?

They list the BenzPen but that does not mean they have it or can get it soon, right?

GP was/is to be my backup plan should my new insurance not cover Bicillin-LA.

Are there other online sources for reasonably priced Bicillin? Without Rx if need be?

Is it a good idea to use GP's name on this forum?
I am afraid snoops might investigate and GP disappear entirely.

Can Bicillin be bought online from Mexico and be mailed to other countries?

Thanks everyone for your suggestions - am following them up. GP (thanks for the tip, Susank) don't know when they will get it in again, and either does the manufacturer. Any other ideas?

You might want to edit your post.

Have you tried alternatives like IM Rocephin?

The generic Ceftriaxone is fairly cheap.
