Tamoxifen Can someone help?

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has any idea how I can get my hands on the tamoxifen brand Genox 20? All other brands - Sandoz, Nolvadex, etc give me terrible side effects. But Genox 20 is out of stock in my area. I've tried my GP, oncologist and pharmacydirect online

    I managed to get Genox 10 recently from my local Pharmacy4Less in Melbourne.  It was out of stock for ages.  It might be worth trying this chemist if you are able to.

    @Midge33 sorry also meant to say I also had trouble getting my normal brand a few months back and ended up going round the small suburban chemists and managed to get the script filled.

    @Midge33 I live in Chermside Brisbane and have been able to get it last couple of times from Direct Chemist Outlet 🙂

    This information from the Govt website- Alphapharm Pty Ltd is the manufacturer. 

    Phone:
    1800 274 276


    Was an offical shortage of the 20mg but it is said to be resolved so this might be a supply chain issue? the 10mg tab is showing as currently unavailable too. 


    Good luck!

    Have you tried Chemist Warehouse ?
    They often have bigger stocks of medications.
    You could try calling the manufacturer as they can tell you who in your area has just received supplies.
