I have been on Nature Throid and now they have pulled it and I am going to have to switch. I have enough to last this month Does anyone have any suggetions on what I can do? I don't like the idea of switching as I have been doing really good on Nature Throid. I am so not happy about it.

Thanks you guy!!!!

Debber,

There was a temporary shortage while RLC updated their lab and equipment. Pharmacies should apparently be restocked by the end of October but you may want to order in an alternative to NatureThroid or WP to avoid running out.

Jacjacr,

Information was from another member who had spoken to RLC. I think member was in the USA but don't know whether that makes a difference.

I am In usa too so they sent me the form letter you have online on another blog and I emailed them and got a email response about the one grains would be first to go out but she could not tell me a time frame yet....can not believe they let this happen with no start up date yet as of yesterday....thanks for your reply.....

I emailed the pharmacy I use in USA (online) and they can't confirm when they will be restocked. I emailed RLC but have not had a response. I am considering NP by Acella but it is double the price for less grains ( 2 grains rather than 3). RLC discontinued the 4 and 5 grains so I was forced to pay more for less, and now I can't get any at all. I am currently trying to find a private UK based practitioner to prescribe NP or similar but it is so costly I am not sure I can do it! Thinking of trying again with NHS Gp but do not hold out much hope . If anyone has any joy I would be grateful to hear. I also have relatives in Chicago who could get for me if anyone knows a way please let me know also

I heard that too Clutter. I think it will be okay. What are some of the alternatives on that? Does anyone know and can you PM me?

Thank you so much, Clutter!!! You are always here for us.
