I'm a long time Armour taker and something is definitly going wrong with Forrest Pharmaceutical. For now, all the strengths up to 90 mg seem to be readily available. Higher than that and it just isn't coming through channels.
I had to ask for 60mg, double rx, so that I could get my daily 120mg dose. Drugstore readily did that for me. This drugstore, actually part of a supermarket chain, shows on their computer that the higher strengths will be in after 10/31. However, the list owner of the iodine list who is in touch with health professionals who prescribe a lot of Armour was told that it would be Dec before the supply gets freed up. I have not, however, heard any explanation of what this problem is------and it's worrisome! If I could not ever get Armour again, my plan is to try 6 tabs a day of Standard Process' Thyrotrophin. I had read a claim, a long time ago, that 3 tabs would deliver the equivalent of 60 mgs of Armour. I have no way of verifying this.

Had hoped for more information but the web site is there. She said Walgreens and Walmart both told her they were having problems getting Armour and they were probably discontinuing production. If someone knows where else is carrying it she would like to know. Dianne Subject: Julie Date: Thu, 2 Oct 2008 13:25:28 -0400 Mom, I'm on ARMOUR now, 60 mg's.
