Is anyone else experiencing a backorder of their Leukine supply? My pharmacy says it is backordered from their supplier and they have no info on how long it might take to restock.

I recently received a refill of Leukine from the Anthem/Blue Cross's specialty pharmacy (Ingenio [https://www.ingenio-rx.com/]) without any supply issues mentioned. Has your issue been resolved? If you have more detail, please let me know and we will bring it up with the maker of the drug (Partner Therapeutics)

Hi Chris, I spoke with my pharmacy this morning and they are telling me it is still on backorder in their system. They do show Partner Therapeutics as the maker and were able to find more for me today. I just had a lavage and my dosage was quadrupled (250 mcg 4x/day, no breaks) by the doc for now. Any help you could give us would be great and if you need more info let me know. Thanks Chris!

@dirksm2 Understood and thank you for the detail. And that is quite a dosage increase! We will talk to Partners about the supply issue ASAP and see if it is a localized anomaly or something of greater concern. Also, I would like to follow-up with you directly so please email me at chrish@papfoundation.org with your contact info if you are OK with continuing the communication.

Thank you Gigi that is good news! I use Monument Health Specialty Pharmacy in Rapid City, SD and I will pass that along. They are trying to locate more for me and maybe that will help. Take care!

Hi Gigi, It is a big increase in dosage for sure. Hopefully it is just temporary because of my recent lavage and will gradually be reduced. The Foundation has been great and is such an important resource for us all. Thanks for the good wishes. You stay healthy too!

Hi, I just ordered from optum rx/Briova Specialty pharmacy and they did not say anything about it being back ordered. If I hear anything I will let you know.
