Can anyone clarify what is happening in the UK to thyroid hormone products (levothyroxine and liothyronine) from Advanz Pharma / Mercury Pharma - including Eltroxin? #thryoid #hypothyroidism #levothyroxine #liothyronine #advanz #mercurypharma #eltroxin

I've contacted NHSBSA and MHRA but so many bits of the NHS and companies do not appear willing to be contacted by patients. Not sure which way to go to get good information. @drpetetaylor.bsky.social

I don't know I'm afraid, I only did press and marketing to help out an endocrinologist friend. I think you are better asking a medic in the field. Hope it gets resolved.

Have they discontinued some or all thyroid hormone products? Tablets and liquids and injectable? Are they rebranding as Advanz and not Mercury? Or totally pulling out? Is it legal for them to ignore all attempts to communicate by phone or email?

Why do the products not show as discontinued on the dm+d database? Why are pharmacists as ignorant as to what is happening as patients?
