I am on Levothyroxine 50mg, Mecrury Pharma, but chemist does not stock Mercury Pharma 50mg anymore, I really don't want to change but can anyone recommend something similar?

You just have to try them and see what you're happy with. What suits one person doesn't necessarily suit someone else. The active ingredient is the same, it's just the fillers that are different and that's what people tend to react to.

I agree with SeasideSusie, but if you want to stay with that make, why not use another chemist who does stock it?

Hi MaisieGray, thank you for message. Yes, I did some more research and found a chemist in Camden Town, London who has Mercury Pharma 50mg which I am delighted about.
