Chemist4U no longer filling private prescriptions -Where to get Thybon Liothyronine?

[Kitten44]

Hi,

I got my T3 from Thybon Henning through Chemist4U before as they seemed to be the cheapest supplier. However, they say they are no longer able to fill private prescriptions, and this will be the case for at least 3 months.

Are there other alternatives that are not too expensive?

Thanks!

Kitten44, Your question may elicit private messages suggesting where you can buy your T3 off prescription. If you haven't already done so, please do read this post healthunlocked.com/thyroidu...

Thank you for this, and apologies. To clarify, I have a private prescription and I want to get the T3 from a reliable source, just not one that charges the earth and the moon! So, if needs be, please reply privately to avoid breaking forum rules, though I´ve seen pharmacy names listed in other posts, some rather old, so I want to get a feel for an up to date experience of privately paying for Thybon Henning T3.

Thanks!

No apology needed, I do understand. But the fact that you're having difficulty getting your prescription fulfilled can be enough to trigger messages being sent to you from 'questionable' members recommending 'questionable' sources.

Pharmacy names for prescriptions can indeed be mentioned on forum. Have you tried Roseway? thyroiduk.org/if-you-are-hy... Worth ringing around perhaps to see who is able to fulfil at a reasonable price.

There is a list on Thyroid UK where to purchase with a private prescription, someone should be able to help.

[helvella Administrator in reply to Brightness14]

There is. And this is a link to it:

Thanks, I'm aware of the list. I guess I should have been more explicit. Last time I got my prescription, I shopped around and I was quoted some extortionate prices in some pharmacies, and Chemist4U was the cheapest at 50p per tablet. Without going through again calling/emailing all chemists, I just want to know if there's any others that are along the same price. And also, it would be good if anyone knows why Chemist4U is no longer filling private prescriptions? I was able to get other meds with them, and they were usually the better price overall, so it's a bummer if for whatever reason they are no longer able to fill private prescriptions. Thanks all!

I have no idea whatsoever why they wouldn't supply private prescriptions.

I suspect the only way to find out would be asking them!

Their website still claims they do them:

chemist-4-u.com/Private-Pre...

Could email an individual such as:

Mr Shamir Patel Superintendent Pharmacist

Email [e-mail]

[Kitten44 in reply to helvella]

Thanks for that, I may try it. I´ve gone through the standard email for prescriptions and the "ask the pharmacist" form and both responses were that they are not filling private prescriptions for the time being, but may resume by the end of October. I asked for further information on one of them, but 3 days later and no response. Seems very odd.

I would have posted the CEO's email - but couldn't find it! Maybe someone else can?

Roseway Labs are normally very competitive

60p per tablet fairy recently

[Kitten44 in reply to SlowDragon]

Thank you! Not as cheap, but I guess beggars can´t be choosers...

[TiggerMe Ambassador in reply to SlowDragon]

Didn't someone say they had put their prices up in the last month or so...?

Edit... maybe that was Smartway...

hopefully someone who uses Roseway regularly will update on current price
