My Department has consulted with the Health Products Regulations Authority (HPRA). The HPRA confirms that the companies that supply levothyroxine products to Ireland have confirmed that there is no shortage of their products.

However, the HPRA received a specific query from a community pharmacy regarding a levothyroxine oral solution product. The wholesaler responsible for the product distribution, Allphar, has confirmed that it has stock and is arranging supply to the pharmacy.
