Eltroxin v Natural Thyroid

[Guest guest]

Hello

I have recently been diagnosed with hypothyroidism and been

prescribed Eltroxin (I live in the UK). Unfortunately I seem to feel

worse on it. I don't know if it is the lactose (I may be lactose

intolerant) or the thyroxine itself or maybe one of the other

ingredients. Having searched the archive I've noticed that Bio-

throid is recommended by some members.

Would anyone be able to advise me if it is the thyroxine causing

problems or the other ingredients? Is Bio-throid hypoallergenic?

Is it possible to buy it without precription (i've noticed that smart-

drugs.net don't ship to the UK) as I'm not sure if my doc would be

willing to prescribe it?

Many thanks for your help.
