I live in Sweden and I have been on Thyroid-S since 2015. The Thai supplier have now listed my country as one of many EU countries that they dont deliver to. I´ve tried Armour Thyroid for the last year but I´m not satisfied. Can anyone be so kind and tell me if its possible to get the Thyroid-S through the UK costoms? If I find a friend in the UK who can forward it to my country - could that be a solution? I think the community rules allow discussions "in general" but if you can give me recommendations that includes name of practitioner or other more specific information, pls send it as a personal message (DM?)

⚠️ IMPORTANT! When you receive a message with a recommendation, please do not assume it is genuine!
Scammers are joining the forum on a very regular basis and messaging members with their assertions that they have successfully purchased xyz medication from zyx source.
First, do check the profile of the member that sent you the message. (You can find their profile by searching for their name in the member list here healthunlocked.com/thyroidu...
Are they a long term member with an active forum posting history? (Just be cautious and check with admin)
Or are they a recently joined member with little or no posting history? (Do be very suspicious and check with admin)
**** Scammers even join our forum and post a 'fake' story about their thyroid journey, that includes mention of self sourcing their thyroid meds. This is to encourage members to ask them where they purchase their medication without prescription.****
-------
Once you have what you think may be a genuine recommendation, you are strongly encouraged to message an Admin to ask whether the admin team have any feedback on the source you've been given.
Please also tell admin the member name/s that messaged you so that we can check them out if necessary.
Admins are not allowed to recommend sources, but we can tell you what, if any, feedback we've received about the source you've been given.
⚠️ Don't part with your much needed money until you are as sure as you can be that the source is genuine.

The UK legal side is laid out in my blog post:
helvella - Personal Importation of Prescription-only Medicines
Details of the legal and cost issues that apply to personal importation of medicines.
helvella.blogspot.com/p/hel...
Being legally pedantic, we are not allowed to export prescription-only medicines. Only import and only for members of our own households.
Obviously it is up to everyone to decide what they do and I am not trying to tell anyone what they should, or should not, do - just highlight the legal basis.
My World Desiccated Thyroid document includes details of several other desiccated thyroid products - specifically several from the USA. However, I have no idea whether you could get hold of them.
There are also possibilities in Denmark and Netherlands, even (possibly) Germany.
I have no idea of costs for any of these!
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. There is now a specific world desiccated thyroid document.
I highly recommend viewing on a computer screen, or a decent sized tablet, rather than a phone. Even I find it less than satisfactory trying to view them on my phone.
helvella - Thyroid Hormone Medicines - UK
The UK document contains up-to-date versions of the Summary Matrixes for levothyroxine tablets, oral solutions and also liothyronine available in the UK. Includes descriptions of tablet markings which allow identification. Latest updates include all declared ingredients for all UK products and links to Patient Information Leaflets, etc.
helvella - World Desiccated Thyroid
Contains details of all known desiccated thyroid products.
helvella - Thyroid Hormone Medicines - RotW
Contains details of all levothyroxine, liothyronine and combination products - excluding desiccated thyroid products. Details available vary by country and manufacturer.
