Topics: Excipients

Guidance on excipients and suggested resources to help find information to support queries about excipients and decision making is provided

Nothing particularly surprising, nor specifically relevant to thyroid disorders, but what it says is clearly applicable to all medicines - thyroid hormones as much as any other.

You just might find some of what it says, or links to, is either relevant or provides a useful source to quote when trying to explain any issues you might have.
