Went to Asda,bad idea.No T3 don't know when they will have it. Have the groceries I wanted we not available either.G/F things,which upset me as I had run out.So I came out of Asda felling the world was against me.

Then I went to Boots,only a small branch so I didn't hold out much hope for T3. WoW I got my T3 no problem. Thank You Boots,my new best friend.

Being Cornwall I dare say Asda will get some drectly.

The liothyronine supply problem has ended (for now). The manufacturer is back in stock and supplying wholesalers. Liothyronine is not commonly prescribed in the UK. As a result, not all pharmacies keep it in stock, and most that do will only have a small quantity. They should be able to order it in for you though, which shouldn't take more than a day.

Hi Bobbin,Yes I had my T3 from Asda before but this time they had no idea when they would get any.

Bobbin2 the only stocks my local pharmacies have are 'old' stock. I spoke with someone at Mercury Pharma (don't know new name) and got the impression that the new stocks are not yet out with the pharmacies and it may be a little while yet.

Hi there,

When did you speak to Mercury? They just informed me that liothyronine is now back in stock.

I went to my small village pharmacy in Cornwall (who usually supply me but had run out with the problems recently), and they got me a new supply of T3 on Tuesday after only a 24 hr wait.

Thank you beaton - yes it's finally struggled through down here (I am at the far west ...nearly as far as you can go but not quite!) Which end are you at then?

Hi Agapanthus, I'm in St. Austell. Not as pretty as where you are but handy for everywhere.

Not what you're looking for?
