Where can I source Teva privately

Private message only. Does anyone know where I can source Teva levo? I've got it on prescription. But I've increased my own dose and need more.

I've sourced thyronorm and accord and neither are helping with symptoms really. When I take them I notice symptoms get worse than when on Teva. Eg more fluid in hands and more constipated.

I know loads don't like it, but for me it seems to work. I think.

I don't think you can. Sources of supply without prescription that I know of don't have the Teva brand, in fact I don't think I've ever seen any of the UK branded Levo available from those sources so I'm surprised you've been able to source Accord brand.

Can you not discuss with your GP that you have initiated your own trial of increased dose because of symptoms and that you feel better on the increased dose. If your test results don't show overmedication then your GP may be willing to prescribe a higher dose.

Not what you're looking for?
