can anyone find Mercury pharma in Yorkshire?

[Purpledreamer]

hello, I think this is a usual story but just in case! Does anyone know of a way to get Mercury pharma from anywhere? (Anywhere!) I’m prescribed 100mg and it says please give Mercury pharma in my notes. From reading around on here I don’t think that’s the problem though- it seems it’s just not being distributed for some reason. Has anyone had any luck with it from Pharmacy2U? The online pharmacy? I haven’t tried that yet.

thankyou for any help or advice! X

I assume you know it might be listed under "Advanz Pharma" in the pharmacies' systems?

And might only be available under its branded packaging as "Eltroxin"?

I used always to suggest getting in touch with the company, Advanz Pharma, but - while worth trying - am not at all convinced that will help.

thankyou so much for your help. I finally found somewhere today after not having it since Christmas. It really does make a difference which brand you are on doesn’t it. Thankyou x

but obviously, as the pharmacist reminded me-

They might not have it next month.

I certainly believe it makes a difference. My (current) choice is Aristo.

interesting as I didn’t like that one very much but that was quite a while ago that I tried it. We are all different so it makes complete sense to me.
