Does anyone get liothyronine, particularly Thybon Henning, from this pharmacy company?
If so, I am particularly wondering about the cost. Some members are being quoted £1 per tablet from another source but I thought I had read of this being less expensive. As is typical, I cannot find the relevant post!
My goodness! These are so cheap to make but this is what happens when a 'gaggle of endos' decide that their 'little pet theory is right'.
NB. Zealous proponents of TSH/T4 hypothyroid dx/treatment have no evidence for their stance. The RCP was asked on numerous occasions to cite references to research/ studies showing their, “overwhelming evidence supporting the use of thyroxine (T4 alone)”: to date none has been provided. A Freedom of Information (FOI) request that the RCP provide such evidence was again met with no response. A request was made via the ‘Ask for Evidence’ website, run in association with ‘Sense About Science’ asking for evidence on the safety and efficacy of L-T4 as a treatment for hypothyroidism. This request was directed to the RCP who eventually responded stating “The RCP’s guidance is based on the opinion of an expert panel temporarily formed for this purpose. The evidence they used to form their individual opinions has not been collated and therefore the RCP cannot provide any evidence list”. There is much [ignored] contrary ‘evidence’, including bone density + a-fib re T3, yet with no record of decisions or evidence as to why the RCP continues. Being above scrutiny is anathema in any field.
