Do you mean Grossman Cynomel? Or Pfizer/King Cytomel?
The Grossman Cynomel is indeed not currently available though many hope it becomes available again soon, as has been suggested.
So far as I can tell, the Medicines Act 1968, allows personal importation for self and members of household - but does not define household. It is likely to be restricted to those living in one residence but it is not clear.
13 Exemptions for imports.
(1)The restriction imposed by section 7(3) of this Act does not apply to the importation of a medicinal product by any person for administration to himself or to any person or persons who are members of his household, and does not apply to the importation of a medicinal product where it is specially imported by or to the order of a doctor or dentist for administration to a particular patient of his.
(2)Without prejudice to the preceding subsection, the restriction imposed by section 7(3) of this Act shall not apply to the importation of a medicinal product in such circumstances as may be specified in an order made by the Ministers for the purposes of this section.
(3)Any exemption conferred by an order under this section may be conferred either in relation to medicinal products generally or in relation to a class of medicinal products specified in the order, and (in either case) may be so conferred subject to such conditions or limitations as may be so specified.
I too am concerned about 75 microgram Triyotex liothyronine. But Pfizer/King Cytomel is available in 5 and 25 microgram tablets - though considerably more expensive that Grossman Cynomel.
