Eltroxin ingredients

[JRosemaryW]

I just wondered if anyone knows if the ingredients in Eltroxin have changed in the last few months. I previously had a bad reaction to Teva and have been fine on Eltroxin for several months but in the last couple of days have had abdominal pain the same as I had when on Teva. I had a new prescription of Eltroxin a couple of weeks ago and wondered if it had changed. I see it has acacia in it now but not sure whether it always has.

JRosemaryW, Eltroxin (same as MercuryPharma) has always contained acacia. There is a downloadable document on the Thyroid UK website that lists the makes and ingredients of UK levothyroxines and other thyroid medications. thyroiduk.org/tuk/treatment...

If you compare the info on that document with the ingredients listed on the PIL inside your current box of Eltroxin, you can see whether anything is different.
