Reinstate supply of triamcinolone injections in the UK for keloids & alopecia

Petition Details

In 2025 DHSC & NHS discontinued the supply of Triamcinolone injections, which has resulted in there being no stock left. I want the supply chain to be reinstated to the UK so patients are able to be treated with this medication.

Additional Information

We believe Triamcinolone injections are essential, evidence based treatment for keloids and alopecia, affecting over 127,000 people in the UK.
We understand that the UK is now the only country denying patients this proven therapy, creating an unacceptable health inequality and leaving thousands without effective care.
We urge the Government to immediately reinstate the supply of triamcinolone injections for NHS and private patients
