Experiences with

Eltroxin

Hi Everyone, I’ve been to collect my repeat prescription of Eltroxin 50mcg from Superdrug and they’ve told me it has been discontinued. Does anyone know if this is correct? Is anyone else having difficulties or can tell me where I can get Eltroxin?

Just wondering if anyone can advise me on my blood results I’ve Hashimoto I’m on 4.5 mls low dose naltrexone and 100mcg of eltroxin mon to Fri 75 mcg sat sun and I’m also in Thybon one and half table daily just wondering if they are improving. My antibodies are reducing gradually.

I decided to have one last blood test before starting to take the eltroxin. I got the result today and am dismayed to find tsh was 3.27 - this has varied in less than two months from 5.37. I really don't know what to do now as it seems my tsh is now "normal".

I've been told by GP my TSH is borderline and been prescribed 25mcg Eltroxin. I joined this forum and have found it very helpful in some respects but the amount of negativity and stories of feeling worse when starting medication have put me off from taking it.

For the last 12 years, I have been given accord levothyroxine, never had a change of brand until yesterday where I was given one box of eltroxin amongst the accord. My question is, is this likely to cause me any problems? And is accord being phased out?

Hope everyone is well I’ve recently been trialing a T4/T3 combo.I tried NDT a few years back and felt really well whilst taking it.I was taking around 2-21/2 grains a day.Stopped taking it as the prices seemed to increase and couldn’t afford it really.So thinking of adding some T3 to my 150 mcg of Eltroxin

I have no idea about the levels to be honest i don’t understand what T4 and all the other numbers mean 🤣 I had a blood test and i was put on a different brand Eltroxin 50 but can it be the tablets that are making me depressed and my anxiety is gone sky high.

I stopped for two months so they were clear out of my system and had a blood test done he has now prescribed me Eltroxin 25 mg has anyone taken this brand and if so what are the side effects.

The Eltroxin (Ft4) plus glandular supports were most effective and my basal temperature had recovered to normal levels within 12 months.

Endo has me on 125 Eltroxin, keeping me low TSH. He says this is best after thyroid cancer. Feeling no energy and 2 other GP say too high dose, Too low dose. I will stay with the endocrinologist advice for now. but one of the GP said don’t take added calcium. My calcium isn’t low anyway.

The reason is that when I was on Eltroxin or Armour I had negative symptoms - heart palpitations, eye stiffness, brain fog, fatigue etc. So I was put on T3 only.

What do I do to ensure I don’t get a different band every couple of months..my T4 is eltroxin which hadn’t been sent when I went to pick it up. Can anyone recommend a brand that is more consistent? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you for all the past advice it has been a lifeline.

My bloods have been good(platelets down to 350 from 1100) but my thyroid playing up and I’m on eltroxin for that 100mg a day. I just had a call with my haematologist and MPN specialist in Dublin and she said she will probably have to move to me to Jakavi due to the interferon shortage.

I take Thybon Henning in 2 x 10 doses and 125mcg Eltroxin My vitamin tests results were all fine. Could an increase in thyroxine help? Would I then need to take less liothyronine? Many thanks for any advice.

However that GP retired and his replacement has repeatedly refused to prescribe Eltroxin on the basis that my TSH is "in range" and although some would say very borderline.

Thus on advice from the amazing guys on this forum, I stopped the T3 altogether and have been increasing my Eltroxin from 57 to 75 and now 100 since May (and have been working on my vitamins).

Hi I have had an underactive for almost 3 years now and I take Eltroxin 75mcg mon-fri and 50mcg sat-sun but have not seen any results with weight loss. I am still fatigued and still picking up weight, almost 30kg's in 3 years which is not helpful.

My situation now is that my present GP, unlike her predecessor who treated me between 2004 & 2009 and prescribed eltroxin (Levothyroxine) on the basis of my symptoms, will not treat me as my thyroid blood test results are all "in range" although the TSH is marginal.

I’ve been self medicating with Euthyrox 50 and have run out and switched to Eltroxin which causes indigestion and doesn’t seem as effective.

My current pharmacy has been stringing me along for over a fortnight. I can get a barcode issued to try elsewhere, and am waiting to hear back, by email, from a couple of candidates. If I 'phone 111, will they point me to a secret supply? As per title, any recommendations? I can double up with my
