I’ve been advised by this wonderful forum to change from Teva to Accord levothyroxine, because of side effects. The surgery only supply Northstar Teva or Northstar Accord - are they one and the same ? Do I need a different brand of Accord? Sorry, I find all this a bit confusing, any advice would be greatly appreciated x

Accord don’t make 25mcg tablets
As you are taking 50mcg and 75mcg alternate days….you will need larger number of 50mcg tablets prescribed per month and cut 50mcg Accord in half to get 75mcg
Accord is available in 50mcg and 100mcg tablets…..boxed as as its self Accord
But also boxed via Lloyds as Northstar or via Boots as Almus
BEWARE Northstar 25mcg is Teva
