Armour thyroid may not be widely available, but I have seen it mentioned several times, in information about some doctors in India.  There are several other desiccated type thyroid meds like Armour.  We know them as Nature-Throid and Erfa Thyroid.  Erfa thyroid is available in Canada.  Forum members have reported being able to obtain it from there, with a U. S. doctor's prescription.  Perhaps that will work for you as well.  I'll try to contact a member that has information about the source for obtaining Erfa.

I checked and obtained from another member, the source through which he is able to obtain Erfa thyroid, which is desiccated T4/T3 med, similar to Armour. I am sending you a PM with a link to the company that provides this service.  I called the company and confirmed that with a valid prescription from a doctor, written in English, they can ship this med direct to you.   Good luck to you.

Hi Gimel, I have been diagnosed to hypothyroid 3 years ago and was on Synth T4 for 3 years with our major help. After further investigation recently, I was said It is Autoimmune hypothyroidism, I am also being advised by my doctor to search for options to get 'Armour'. Please share the process so that I can order this from India. Thanks in Advance. -Sri
