About 30 years ago I enjoyed great health then I began to get muscle aches mostly in my shoulders, couldn’t hardly raise my arms. I got so fatigued I could barely drive home from work. I could not concentrate. I thought I had some kind of flu. Went to a walk-in clinic and doc took a blood test. Thyroid numbers were so low he said I was almost close to a coma. Put me on synthroid. You’re not suppose to switch from brand to generic. My Bcbs Medicare supplement decided that they’re not covering brand anymore. They want everybody to go generic. Doc says no, pharmacist says no. Brand is about 150.00 for 90 day supply. So I’ve found out that synthroid has a program to go direct and that costs me half of what the drug stores get. Synthroidelivers.com if anyone else is having the same issue. Check it out.
My doctor ended up putting me on Tirosint (it only has 4 ingredients, no fillers) due to my allergic reactions to the fillers in generic synthroid. I never knew which manufacturer would be the supplier for each month’s pills and it gets real old real fast when your lips swell and your throat starts closing up. Now Tirosint has been replaced by a generic and BCBS only provides that, but thankfully the generic doesn’t have fillers (so far). $15 for a 90 day supply through mail order.
I’ll check it out.
As recommended by my doctor I started getting my synthroid from Northwestpharmacy.com
Last order cost me about $78 for a 6-month supply.

Is Levothyroxine a generic form product, made by Synthroid? Or, is it considered *brand Synthroid?
