Sanofi-Aventis branded T3 supplies - have they stopped selling it?

Does anyone know if Sanofi-Aventis have stopped making or selling their Cynomel T3?

I have been getting my supplies by prescription from Belgium happily for the last 6 years and today I have been told that they have stopped selling it. Is that true? If not, where can I now get this T3 brand? As I have tried many of the others and I cannot tolerate them, so I'm seriously worried

Thanks

munroie, Have you been getting this brand from Belgium with a UK prescription? If yes, then the issue might be because pharmacies in Europe are no longer able to honour UK prescriptions, since the UK has left the EU.

I don't think that is the problem as they are able to supply me with my UK prescription an alternative - Uni-Pharma T3, which is no good for me, as I cannot tolerate it.

Ah I see. Calling out to helvella our resident thyroid meds expert in case he has anything useful to tell about this.

All I know at present is that we have seen a number of people reporting that they can’t get Sanofi Adventist Cynomel.

Will see what I can find.

I had the same problem and now order Sanofoi Thybon henning from Germany 20 mcg pills instead of 25 mcg.
