Natural thyroid availability in Continental Europe

[lidoplace]

What is the position regarding NDT in France ? Is there any point in taking a trip to the continent to Holland, Belgium, Germany, France etc if the position is the same as UK?

Latest knowledge anyone ?

Lidoplace, NDT is illegal in France and I believe prescription only in the rest of Europe which is why people buy online.

Thankyou , Clutter. I am hoping to get a supply in US to bring back to UK but am preparing best way to get it once I return, before running out.

There is no longer the Italian product Cinetic (withdrawn from the market a number of years ago).

Belgium has Armour and Erfa available on prescription only.

Thanks Helvella

Several options seem to be likely but none straightforward like going to the local pharmacy

There is an NDT available from the USA called Thyro Gold and is available without a prescription. It was developed by a doctor/scientist for people who were unable to get a prescription for the prescribed NDTs. Dr Lowe was also an Adviser to Thyroiduk.org.uk before his death.

Thankyou Shaws, more good information but I guess careful cost comparisons are next on the journey

Holiday to Greece, Cyprus or Turkey.

Thanks for your reply AON - is it available without prescription there ?

I believe so, but you should check first. Thailand is another possible destination.
