Specimen bottles

Ok, for reasons I won't go into, I need some (don't really know how many, maybe 20 or 30) specimen bottles, of the type that can hold urine.

Anyone know of any UK medical supply sites that sell these? - I've had a quick google but can't find anything...

Hope someone can help...

We get ours from Lloyds chemist...Boots probably do them as well.

If they haven't got them in they can order them for you.

With the wife pregnant, she's got to give a fair few urine samples - and the doctor will only give you one, and then that's it - and I don't really like the idea of them being reused?

I think you could re-use them if you washed and dried them thoroughly but they are so cheap that it doesn't really matter.

I know, it's just me being overly fussy - and like you say, they're so cheap it doesn't really matter....... (wait for it..........) it's not like we're p!ssing our money away.... :D (sorry couldn't resist)...

Re: Specimen bottles

Your doctors will definately give them to you (if you need a large number best warn them) providing it is for medical reasons!

Nope, we asked - they said they would only give us one.

Suggest your local hospital then ... ? Sounds like the normal NHS we're tight as coming out from your quacks
