The new formula of levothyroxine

[anneperlikowski]

Any problem with the new formula? In France, the old one is back to the chemists as the new one gave bad side effects to patients... Do you have that problem or do you know something about the new formula?

Anneperlikowski,

There is a problem with the reformulation of Merck Levothyrox in France. thelocal.fr/20170824/france...

It's not available in the UK so isn't an issue here.

Thank you very much for your quick reply, I didn't know about it... <3

In the UK we have also at times had problems with reformulations of thyroid hormone replacements and at first the patient doesn't realise it is that which is giving them additional symptoms.
