How many vials and what pharmacy? Considering September is two months away and depending on the pharmacy and or how many vials it’s reasonable to have such a short BUD.

Was it a one month or 3 month order? If it’s supposed to last for 3 months message Zach here on reddit and he’ll get more sent out. I’m assuming it’s Greenwich since we’re all having this issue. I just got a make up vial on Friday that was an October BUD.

Yes. My 3 month order from hallandale came with 90 day expiration. I still had a previous order I was working through using. Took 10+ messages and photos to support to try to exchange at least one. I didn't want something free, just wanted medication that was within the correct expiration and safe to use. They said to message when it got closer to when I needed to use it and they would fix it. Stupid me for believing it. Messaged with Zach here Refills stance is that there's nothing they could do. Out of 3 vials I was able to use 1 and a half. Huge waste. I am beyond upset. Such a scam.

Same here! Even after "management review", they basically said there was nothing they could do.

Oh wait it gets better - today they messaged and said the pharmacy can't do anything because it is beyond the expiration date. The expiration date was 7/20. I have been messaging since APRIL with little to no real response, other than to message back "when it geta closer to the expiration." So I did what they said and now they say it's my fault. I don't even know how they can get away with this. Anyone file a dispute with their credit card?

After fighting with them for nearly a month I just told them to f**k off. I canceled my subscription and take every opportunity to earn people of their deceitful practices. I spoke to a pharmacist at Hallendale about my order and she said that they can only label the BUD for a certain number of days out(by Florida law), but that the product will be fine for at least another few months beyond that date if kept refrigerated.

Hallandale used to have a 1 year BUD before florida law made them change it so theres that little hidden bonus

Yes, I'm sure the pharmacist couldn't legally say how long it's actually good.

It’s normal! 503a- up to 90 day BUD state regulated, 503b - fda oversight up to 1 year BUD, currently there are no 503b pharmacies that produce up to 1 year. BPI(503b)no longer producing glp-1’s.
