Tirosint

Can anyone let me know where I can find myself Liquid Thyroxine, Tirosint please

[milkwoman]

Tirosint is not liquid levothyroxine, but rather gel-tabs containing Levo, glycerin, gelatin and water.

It's available in the USA - not sure about anywhere else.

Tirosint is the only Levo I can take as I have side effects with other kinds. I have done very well on it.

Thank you for your response 😊

Is there any way I could get it online ?

Happy to hear you are doing well

I really don't know if it is available online as I have it prescribed by my endocrinologist Nd can get it at my local pharmacy (I'm in the US).

Have you searched for it on any of the online pharmacies? It is very expensive. I had to get a preauthorization in order for my insurance to cover it.

It is possible to purchase it online. Provided your bank account is towards the healthy end of the scale.

I can see £137.66 for 28 tablets (all doses are the same price) - to which you have to add: shipping, VAT at 20% (assuming it gets picked up) and the charge of the courier for doing the customs clearance. (Royal Mail = £8 but other carriers charge more.)

It might also be available in some European countries - it was developed in Europe! - but I do not know which countries or if there are any potential sources.
