Following the concerns from the French consumers about the new formula of levothyroxin (which has the same ingredients used by Teva) , the French health Minister has revoked the new product from the market few days ago.

Sorry i am not sure about the brand but the product questioned has the same ingredients list as teva does.

I read it in a French news paper.

I have just googled French levothyroxine and found that you are no doubt referring to a change in formula of levothyroxine supplied in France called Levothyrox made by Merck.

There have been many problems with the new formulation.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
