Specific tablets

[Duckdown]

Trying to get mercury brand but finding it very difficult as only activis and teva available is anyone else experiencing this problem?

[Treepie]

Yes,even Wockhardt has been replaced and their 25 mcg pill is much smaller than the 100 but Teva are the same so can confuse.

Not had mercury brand for a while. I take Actavis & Wockhardt as I can't tolerate teva.

I hadn't been given the Mercury brand by my pharmacy for some time, but my latest prescription was Mercury. It must be six months since I had these. Perhaps there's been a manufacturing issue?

Contact Concordia (new owners of Mercury Pharma) here:

See what they say. We have repeatedly seen non-availability of one or other make and found, in the end, it is not the manufacturer but the distribution/retail side that is the problem. I suggest email so you get a reply that you can waft in front of the pharmacies that are letting you down.

After some difficulty My pharmastist managed to source loose 50mcg Mercury pharma tabs for me tablets about 3 months ago he had to buy a fairly large quantity and has put some aside for me for the future.

I can't tolerate actavis or teva , taking those for a short while last year completely messed up how I felt and this and t4 my levels and it has taken six months or more for me to get back on an even keel.

It is worth persisting

Good luck

My pharmacy have it on the system to only give me Mercury Pharma brand and that's what they always have ready when I pick them up so it must be possible to get them. Hope you manage to find some.

Yes, I am too. I am unsure why there is such a problem.
