Cost of Armour

[Robin18]

Hi Everyone

I was just wondering if anyone else is experiencing a sudden huge jump in the cost of Armour NDT. The cost of the tablets has increased costs by 10% in the past 6 months (suppliers told me it was a cost they had had to pass on to customers having held back from a previous price rise).

I really want to stay on Armour but the cost is starting to bite!

Thank you

I really have. I’m thinking of trying Metavive but nervous to… it’s a lot cheaper

If you havent yet tried getting to optiml levels on Levo alone or a combinstion of levo + T3 then they are far cheaper and more reliable than glandulars.

Theres not a lot of info in your previous posts.

You can email [e-mail] for a list of T3 friendly Endo's. Pick a couple then make a post asking for feedback by private message only.

Thank you for your reply and your suggestions - much appreciated. I was previously on Levo and and not well at all - could not get the doc to up my dose (the whole within the range malarky) so had to find my own way of managing symptoms. I have been very well on NDT but it's just getting too expensive.

I have that list from Thyroid UK so I'll have a look.

You could always try Roseway prescribing service if you just want Levo. Its reasonably priced.
