“An absolute disaster.”
Summarised by Centrist
David Seymour has demanded Pharmac explain its decision to stop funding Estradot HRT patches, which many women prefer over the Mylan brand set to replace it. Seymour criticised the lack of patient consultation, saying, “How patient voice was considered is critical.” Auckland doctor Garsing Wong called the move “an absolute disaster,” warning of risks to patients’ health and quality of life.
