Do you mean NHS T3 from Morningside Healthcare?

Or Teva T3

Well I found Morningside Healthcare about 25% more powerful than Mercury Pharma.

Underlines why it's important to stick on one brand

Was taking 20mcg Mercury Pharma, but after 4 months on Morningside I have had to reduce to 15mcg. (So it's a bit cheaper for NHS as my prescription lasts longer)

No experience of Teva. It's the only lactose free one. Many people don't get on with Teva Levothyroxine which is also lactose free

Linda65,

I've been taking Morningside for 9 days and it seems fine.

I found Teva stronger than Mercury Pharma.

I haven’t tried Morningside yet but it’s in the cupboard waiting to be used.
