hi,

I can’t afford to pay my local pharmacy price for my T3 any more (£97 for 28). I’ve asked Roseway Pharmacy for a quote - I have a private prescription for 6 months supply.

I’d be really grateful if someone can please advise me if they buy from Roseway Labs and if all is fine as they require photo ID so I’d have to send them a copy of my passport. With all of the ‘cons’ nowadays I’m really nervous about this..

also, although my prescription is for six months I’ve asked them for a quote for one month to begin with as,if I’m changing manufacturer to get the best price, I’d like to see if it suits me before buying six months. Then can I go back to them for the remaining 5 months from the same prescription?

Any help as usual will be greatly appreciated as I’m really nervous about dealing with other suppliers but my local pharmacy price is beyond a joke!

I've used Roseway Labs for some time using a private prescription. Definitely reliable.

Do be aware that you get the best price if your prescription states the number of tablets as a multiple of the number in a pack. For example my meds come in a box of 100 tablets and I take 1 a day, so I ask for my prescription to say '100 tablets'. This makes it easier for them to dispense without having to split packs etc.

On the other hand many meds such as levothyroxine seem to come in packs of 28 which is 4 weeks at 1 a day. Months vary!

100 days is just over 3 months, so this doesn't fit with your prescription being for a number of months.

oh thank you Anthea55, I can order from them and deal with them confidently now! Thank you for your helpful info - see what you mean regarding packs of 28.

I’ve just set up an account with them and like you was a bit nervous about sharing personal information, Im sure I read somewhere this is destroyed after 30days and now set up will be easier next time . It was a very smooth sale and delivery within a couple of days😊

Ok thank you so much for your reassurance - in the middle of this country’s extremely unfair postcode lottery I can’t afford to keep paying £97 for my T3 28 day dose - somethings so badly wrong in our country but we have to try our best to survive

I hope you now have a prescription for Thybon-Henning at 60p per 20mcg tablet?

Just to say I couldn’t see my order details on my account after delivery and a quick phone call and the lovely man from Roseway said so sorry just need to link your account and it was done - very professional service . Finally feel in safe hands 🙌

that’s terrible. I hope you find a solution. Or a better medic.
