Frequently Asked Questions
What is Euthyrox and how does it differ from Synthroid?
Euthyrox is a brand-name levothyroxine product. Like Synthroid, it contains the same active thyroid hormone but uses a different inactive ingredient formulation. Some patients tolerate one brand better than another.
Can I switch between Euthyrox and generic levothyroxine?
Thyroid experts generally recommend staying on one consistent levothyroxine brand or generic, as small bioavailability differences can affect TSH levels. If switching, recheck TSH in 6–8 weeks.
Is Euthyrox available in the US?
Euthyrox was introduced to the US market by Merck to compete with Synthroid. Availability varies by pharmacy. Script Unlock pharmacies can confirm stock and provide cash pricing.
Is there a meaningful difference between thyroid hormone brands?
Most patients do equally well on any consistent formulation of levothyroxine. Patients who experience variability in TSH may benefit from the consistency of a specific brand. Discuss with your endocrinologist.
What does Euthyrox cost through Script Unlock?
Euthyrox pricing varies by pharmacy. Generic levothyroxine through Script Unlock pharmacies is typically $8–$12/month. Post your script to compare specific cash bids.
