did something change? I can’t get Dithyron T3/T4 anywhere in Greece. Haven’t tried just T3 can you still get that?

Some time back, I think two years ago, we had a number of posts saying they could not get Unipharma T3 in Greece - at all. One or two managed one packet for a while, then none. This state of affairs was confirmed by people who live permanently in Greece.

Then we had one or two who said the same about Dithyron. But very few take that so the number of posts was small. I don't think anyone was surprised that Dithyron became unavailable once they knew of the disappearance of T3.

Do let us know how it goes.

Uni-pharma are no longer producing T3 nor the combo Dithyron.

Across the board, the range of (deemed essential) pharmaceutical medicines are in either very short supply or not available. This includes pain medication for cancer patients :(

I live in Greece and have had to resolve my own T3 requirement - serendipitously a Greek friend's sister went on a "weekend break" to Turkey and brought back Tiromel (which in my view is superior to the old Uni-pharma T3). The price was about £20 for 1000 25mcg blister packed tablets - cash payment would have been £17!
