It would be rare for an NHS doctor to prescribe NDT. The BTA guidelines state that only levothyroxine is to be prescribed so some may be afraid to prescribe on a 'named patient basis' as they are not licenced in the UK.

Hi again

I should have said that if any members know of a doctor, they will send you a Private Message. If you also email louise.warvill@thyroiduk.org she has a list of doctors but am not sure if they are private only.

Not what you're looking for?
