Are you wishing to purchase this medication without a prescription? Or do you just want information about the tablets?

TheresaGreen1967• in reply toBuddy19511 days ago

Yes without prescription as self sourcing

As it isn’t clear from your post title that you want medication without prescription, you may need to repost.

Please be careful as scammers do operate on this forum. Send a PM to admin to check any supplier named.

This appears to have been sourced in a Portugese speaking country.

What strength are they?

I need high dose T3-only to function and due to availability I sometimes rely on out of date T3 tablets... but would be reluctant to use any more than 2 years out of day, for fear of reduced potency

Liothyronine, available on prescription from (some) endocrinologists in the UK, is an equivalent product....available in different strengths.

Speak to your GP who may refer you to endocrinology

Many of us self source. You can write a post asking members for sources and giving some background eg recent lab results, dose, symptoms etc

Any information re source must be shared by private message only

Suggest you read the following before self sourcing

Have you tried putting Liotironina in your search engine, it will take you to info available on Portugese sites? But probably a wild goose chase!

I'm assuming you wish to source T3.

"Liotironina" - the quotes might ensure you don't get too many similar but wrong words found!

Finds general information and products on sites in Romanian, Spanish, Italian - as well as Portuguese - and other languages!
