Hi all,

I am in Germany for a day next week. Will it be possible to buy my t3 meds over the counter or would i have had to order them first? Thanks in advance and happy and healthy new year to you all.

Hashimotoes01,

You will require a prescription to buy T3 in Germany.

Theoretically a UK prescription can be used in other EU countries - though there are limitiations and there are bound to be difficulties. (For example, some countries tend to dispense 30 tablets at a time; others dispense 28. Or 100. Or some other number. If your prescription is written for a different number that could cause an issue.)
