Hi It is a very individual thing, Some will give it under the " Named person" rules. Mine will not ,even though I am allergic to Levo. Some endo`s will prescribe it but prefer to give Levo and t3, ( most importantly, after a Free T3 test). My private one prescribes me armour, private script but more expensive T3 from the GP. I hope that helps. As you can gather ,no hard and fast rules. T3 is by far the most expensive.
