Compounded hormone therapy saved my life

In 2014 I had my thyroid removed due to a supposed cancer diagnosis. I was on levothyroxin for 7 months when I started having issues. For 3 months I suffered with terrible issues and was able to find a doctor that practiced integrative medicine. When it became obvious that I was not converting T4 to T3, this doctor put me on compounded liothyronine. It was a miracle and I have been on it ever since, with the exception of two times when we tried going back to T4 with the same disastrous results. Being able to have my medicine compounded for me has been a life saver. Please don’t take this away from me. This really is my only option.

Hear their stories. Protect their own words. Protect their access to compounded medicines.

On this page, we can only touch on the data that demonstrates the importance of compounded medicines to the lives of millions of people in this country. While the decision to take this vital therapy from patients and physicians might be profitable for big pharmaceutical companies, it will be disastrous for the millions of patients that those same pharmaceutical companies cannot serve!

We encourage the appropriate committees in both the House and Senate to hold hearings on this critical issue.
