“Please don’t take away the only meds that help!”

I’m glad you don’t understand this problem. I hope you never do, and I hope your children never do. I spent years of my life taking Levo thyroid medication. The hair loss, brain fog, and exhaustion were awful. It was hard to work and take care of my kids. I found desiccated meds and things were better, but nowhere near “normal”. Compounded thyroid meds gave me my life back. My eyes stopped being so dry that they felt like sandpaper. My hair stopped falling out in clumps. I would stop and think for a minute if someone you love ends up having this problem and can’t get the help they need because of this decision, how will you feel?

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.
