Hi Scott,
Here's the UK data sheet for metyrapone.....
http://emc.medicines.org.uk/emc/industry/default.asp?page=displaydoc.asp&documentid=126
I've never seen a prescription for metyrapone, I've read that it 'may be difficult to obtain'. I'm sure the pharmacy could get hold of it with a bit of effort. Perhaps they'd have to ring 'specials'. If in doubt ring 'specials' LOL, they can usually get hold of unusual stuff. All unlicensed (not approved) products come from 'specials', metyrapone is licensed though so I'm not sure about that. I remember ringing specials last year to order 1 kg of pure wool fat. Nice!
