Screenshot of my UK medicines document in Preview on macOS
My UK medicines document attempts to make it easy for you to find out a lot about the thyroid hormone medicines available in the UK.
The attached screenshot illustrates. (This is from Preview under macOS but the same things are available in other PDF viewers such as Acrobat. However, they might not look quite the same. You might not see the table of contents in a browser.)
You will get a better "viewing experience" on a full screen device than on a phone.
At left is the Table of Contents. The number of levels you can see varies but you should be able to expand it down to individual products. You can then just click on the product to go straight to that page.
Then the left-hand page shows the Summary Matrix - now divided into "available" and "unavailable". Which also lists the dosages, and the most significant excipients.
The right-hand page has details of the product including product licence numbers and other identification information.
The document also identifies where two seemingly different products are actually the same (e.g. Accord and Almus levothyroxine).
Of course, if there are omissions or mistakes - let me know!
helvella's medicines documents (UK and Rest of the World) can be found here:
helvella - Thyroid Hormone Medicines
helvella has created, and tries to maintain, documents containing details of all thyroid hormone medicines in the UK and, in less detail, many others around the world.
This link takes you to a page which has direct links to the documents from Dropbox and Google Drive, and QR codes to make it easy to access from phones.
The UK document contains up-to-date versions of the Summary Matrix for tablets, oral solutions and liothyronine available in the UK.
