Boxes of 100?

The expiry date is in 3 months time. A box of 100 will last 14 weeks if taking one a day.

I have used Unipharma T3 2 years past it's expiry date and they've been fine, I didn't notice any loss of potency. Of course, I can't speak for Thybon Henning as I've not used that brand.

If you wont use them all by the expiry date then tell the pharmacy which dispensed them and ask for those which will be past expiry to be exchanged.

Hi, thank you for your prompt reply, I will contact the parmacy, see what they say, as I paid £60 per box of 100

If they were NHS (free prescription) then they might try and fob you off, but as you've paid £60 per box I think you're entitled to have them in date. You have to wonder why the dispenser doesn't check the date when filling the prescription! It should be pretty obvious by the dosing instructions that you wont use 200 within 3 months. Good luck and let us know what they say.

Contacted pharmacy, no go with refund or replacement, so I think ill take a chance and use them all. You said you use unipharma t3, is that lactose free?

Ingredients are in Greek on the leaflet but according to Helvella's medicine document the lactose status for Unipharma hasn't been confirmed. I have been using it for about 7 years and as I am not lactose intolerant then I wouldn't have a problem with it if it did contain lactose so it's not something I can confirm I'm afraid .

This is what I found at some point - but I cannot guarantee accuracy!

Hi Geegee nothing to add re using out of date but I've seen you posting before, just had a read of your bio when I saw you are on T3 - I'm so thrilled you are feeling well! Congratulations.

It is always so heartwarming to hear a win.

when did they arrive? Can you contact your supplier and tell them the expiry date is too soon for your doses. They may change them. Once I used Thybon Henning out of expiry date and I didn’t feel as good. As soon as I started in date batch I felt much better. There is a real reason pharmaceutical manufacturer have expiry dates. You may be lucky and feel ok ??
