T3 in Cyprus?

Hi, I'm soon to travel to Cyprus for a holiday. Does anyone know if I can buy Liothyronine or any decent T3 there please? I am lucky to have it prescribed for me here in the UK at the moment but I live in fear of having it stopped ! Thank you.

Blackbird28,

I don't know whether T3 is available without prescription in Cyprus. There is a shortage of Uni-Pharma T3 in Greece so it is unlikely Uni-Pharma will be available in the south of Cyprus. Tiromel is the Turkish T3 so you could ask for that in the North.

I can confirm there is no T3 in the Greek side of Cyprus, as I have tried to buy it there last week. The pharmacist said they only sell T4, she has never heard of T3.

Hi

I’m very sorry but I don’t know. A friend got them in a village near Paphos but she can’t remember where.

Your response here breaks guideline 24 so has been edited to make it compliant.

25. Do not post advertisements, links or information of any sort whatsoever, on where or how to obtain UK prescription only medications without prescription. This includes online pharmacies who issue 'prescriptions' on the basis of the completion of a simple health questionnaire.
