A member asked:
What should you do when you don't have the money or the insurance to continue paying for the levothyroxine and you've been of the meds for a while now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends.: If you have some thyroid function you may be able to get by for quite a while. But if you have no thyroid function you will develop rather significant symptoms in a few weeks. Sometimes pharmacies and manufacturers have plans for supplying meds. Check with them and the internet.
