T3 discontinued looking for online pharmacy

[xShannon1]

Hi it's a first post probably ever! I'm based in Ireland. Post TT for 5 years. I was finally allowed start on T4 and T3 combined therapy Dec 2016. The brand that worked well for me Ti Tre was discontinued (efficacy problems though still not sure why) and the only 2 brands available in Ireland are "T3" and "thybon" which do not have the same effect for me. On Ti Tre the brain fog lifted and I felt a balance I had not felt in years. I had to change brands when my Ti Tre ran out and feel back to square 1 with what's available in Ireland. I'm on the hunt for a new T3 brand that's gelatine free and with the same make up as Ti Tre. Would anyone have online pharmacy recommendations please? I am just looking for alternative choices to the limited ones in Ireland. Thank you

Does it have to be a 20 microgram tablet? Most T3 around the world is in 25 microgram tablets.

Which company makes the "T3"? Is it Mercury Pharma (Concordia International)?

Are there any legal requirements for Ireland? Some countries make it awkward to impossible to import medicines. Any such requirements might affect recommendations.

Hi. Thanks for replying. No it can be 25mcg. The T3 is unipharma I think. But I'm on thybon as it has no gelatine. I'm trying to avoid NDT as I am a lapsed vegetarian but prefer not to use animal products so it would be the most ironic thing if I ended up having to go to something like naturethoid. The liothyronine in Ireland is unlicensed hence pharmacy restrictions...

xShannon1,

Why must it be 20mcg? Most T3 is 25mcg. If you were taking Greek UniPharma T3 that was 25mcg. It is not available currently without prescription in Greece.
