Hi all, does anyone know if I can buy Levothyroxine over the counter from a pharmacy, or can I use my uk prescription. 

Thanks in adv

Yes you can. It's 100mcg and a box is around 6e. Take an empty box of UK supply with you, it's easier that way

That I personally know of doses of 25mcg & 125mcg are also available in addition to which the standard issue box seems to be 100 tabs not just 30.

Wow, can someone just confirm this for me please because I am not sure if I got this right?

I can walk into any Chemist here and buy Levothyroxine tablets over the counter without a prescription?

If this is true I am gobsmacked. In the UK, I was running around all over the place trying to get my medication because I had to travel. I was often treated like I was a criminal and so many times I had to go without my levothyroxine.

If this is true I will be over the moon. I only just arrived a few days ago so have not been able to see if I can continue with my prescription.

Thank you
