It's unavailable at the moment, although RLC that manufacture WP make another NDT, which is available, but only the 1 grain tablets.

RLC is the company that make both WP Thyroid & Nature Throid.

Both are types of natural dessicated thyroid ((NDT), which is the type of thyroid medication that was prescribed before syntheric hormones were invented.

Thanks for replying . Do you need a prescription for NDT ?

Can you purchase it privately ?

Where is RLC company located?

Sorry for all these questions but new to this .

Kind regards Annie

annie123,

Prescription requirement varies by country - USA and UK - yes, prescription is needed for in-country purchase.

It can be purchased privately (when there are no shortages).

annie123,

RLC do not supply directly.

Afraid I do not buy desiccated thyroid so am unfamiliar with the current prices.
