T4 price info

[Khan-123]

Hi guys

Any information is good information. I hope this doesn’t breach any forum rules.

Thought I’d post price and manufacturer details from uk pharmacy on t3

Looks like the prices have reduced a lot in the last year

Sorry that photo is very difficult to read

Yes price of T3 is dropping very slowly

Down from £258 for 28 x 20mcg

Currently £163 for 28 x 20mcg

Still significantly higher than rest of world

Post about cost of 5mcg and 10mcg dose

healthunlocked.com/thyroidu...

German T3 is only 31 Euro for 100 tablets

Greek and a Turkish 25mcg approx half that price

Does that actually say

Liothyronine 25mcg powder injections by Mercury Pharma (pack of 5) £1557.50!

Yeh it does 😦 lol

Also sorry for the picture quality and I just noticed the title is incorrect.

I knew anywhere else in the world is extremely cheap which makes me so angry. How and why are they (our government) allowing the hardworking residents of this country suffer at the benefit of a few.

I researched prices, strength and brands as it’s seems the inevitable unfortunately BUT I’m gradually increasing t4 dose age at the moment which I feel might just do it for me. God willing

Any how so glad they’re climbing down slowly

Instead of photographing your screen, do a screenshot!

In Windows, you probably have a key marked Prt Scr (or similar). Press it. Then paste the screenshot into any application you like - Word, Windows Paint, etc.

Lol thanks for the feedback although I’m very competent with computers, my family member taking the photos isn’t.

Price hike has meant thousands of patients have had prescriptions withdrawn

Just a point of pedantry on my part, but your thread title states T4, but the content is T3? I don't know it the title can be tweaked at all?

Not really to you, but as a general comment, if I am interested in costs of meds, I look up the BNF

bnf.nice.org.uk/medicinal-f...

It seems to cover the whole shebang
