You might already know what is available but, in case not, my medicines document has all; licensed UK thyroid hormones - levothyroxine and liothyronine. There are links to the documentation for each product so you can check if any might be better for you than others.

I have created, and try to maintain, a document containing details of all thyroid hormone medicines in the UK and, in less detail, many others around the world.
