Teva Thyroxine strikes again!

Courtesy of this board I now know what is going on with me. Several weeks ago I started having nightmares. Never had them before. Usually I don't even dream! Dr Google came up with the answer in a heartbeat. I quickly checked the branding and voila there was the culprit!

Seems I am not the only one to suffer at the hands of this brand. Not only do I have nightmares but further reading linked in the itchy skin on hands and legs and the feeling of tiredness.

I have checked my new bag of meds and they don't seem to be issuing Teva anymore and have given me back my original Mercury Pharma. I will make sure the practice is aware that I do not want Teva again!

Also courtesy of this board I have filled in a yellow report and sent it off.

Thanks to all who contribute to this place. Without you we would all be much less knowledgeable.

I must say that I'm always in the habit of checking what I'm given before leaving the pharmacy!

Some people do very well on Teva. If it suits you and you've had no adverse reaction, then don't worry.
