I’m currently living in Spain and taking eutirox 88mg and 100mg alternate days. Im moving back to the UK and have looked at helvella useful list of types of thyroxine available in each country.
My question is what would be the best brand for me to switch to - which brand is closest in its composition to eutirox?
I appreciate not many brands produce an 88mg tablet but I’m happy to split tablets to make up the dose I need. Im currently splitting 25mg tablets in half to take along with the 88mg on the days I need 100mg dose. Im slowly edging towards 100mg daily but have had to do it slowly due to my body over reacting to the dose. Im working on getting my B12, D, ferritin optimum to help that process.

I've pretty much given up speculating on which make would suit any individual!
Other than known intolerances/allergies, I am not convinced there is any way of predicting which would be best. Not even if A would likely be better than B.
And, with all sorts of supply issues, it might be as well to find a pharmacy which will reliably provide one product and see how it goes.
Based on recent experience, I suspect the two most likely to be available are Teva and Accord.
