Thanks for that. I have no idea why I haven't spotted them on the Connaught site before.Connaught stock them, don't think anyone else does.
That was my next question!Is a Med Prep the same as Lab Blue or different ?
That was my next question!
I have never tried Med Preps , but I find the Lab Blues excellent.Opinions vary, I use both and vacillate about whether they're the same or the meds are slightly better. Common theory is that they're the same with the meds having an additional cleaning step however as they're not sterile anyway I have my doubts. Someone on B&B posted photos taken under a microscope which appeared to show a different grind, but people disagreed on that too.
What I can say for definite is that to me they're very close and both are excellent.
Thank you Russell. Paul (@Blademonkey) is sending me some Med Preps so a comparison will be interesting. PM incoming.If you need some Lab Blue's I can send you a few Barry.
Thank you Chris. Thanks to the generous souls on here I'll be able to judge for myself.Opinions vary, I use both and vacillate about whether they're the same or the meds are slightly better.
