    Relief from doctors specialising in menopause following Pharmac's recent u-turn

    Relief from doctors specialising in menopause following Pharmac's recent u-turn


    Pharmac's announced they'll fund both the Estradot and Mylan brands of hormone replacement patches from December, after public consultation.

    It follows backlash in response to their decision to switch suppliers

    Menodoctor Clinical Director Dr Linda Dear says this is the news they needed to hear.

    Dear says it's good to have these options because one may work better for some women than the other - adding losing Estradot recently was devastating.
