This is a disgrace the NHS won’t allow dr to prescribe this drug anymore due to the ridiculous price the drug companies are charging. Any where in Europe and world wide these drugs cost pennies but here £800 plus for 225 per month what the hell is going on?????

If you are prescribed T3 on recommendation of NHS endocrinologist, and doing well on it, you should be allowed to be kept on it

It should not be patients problem that NHS can't sort this
