Where to obtain NDT

I have been taking NDT for 20 years. Just moved to Scotland. After seeing a private endocrinologist he suggested I get my medication online, he said I do not need a prescription. I cannot find any online pharmacies that will send me NDT without a prescription! I have been taking Armour Thyroid but I am open to any NDT as the synthetics do not work at all for me.

Can someone give me some advice please.

Endocrinologist could/should have prescribed if you want Armour

I think the best thing you can do is ask your endo for a recommendation of an online supplier without prescription. If he is suggesting that you do this then he should be telling you of a reliable source. He will know that you will not get NDT in the UK without a prescription, it needs to be ordered from an overseas supplier and you will need a recommendation of a reliable one to avoid any possible dodgy suppliers.

If any member can recommend one they will send information in a private message as we can't discuss suppliers on the forum.
