What to say at the pharmacy

“Before you fill my Unithroid, can you tell me what I’d pay for the brand, for the authorized generic from Amneal Pharmaceuticals, and for a regular generic?”

Paying cash? Ask for each one’s cash price. With insurance, ask what your plan charges for each.

The FDA doesn’t rate Camber Pharmaceuticals’s version of levothyroxine a substitute for Unithroid, so a pharmacy can’t swap it in without your prescriber’s OK.

Who sells it: FDA and Medicaid records, updated weekly. Each maker’s page, card and program is from its own site.

What it’s used for

What the FDA label says

UNITHROID is L-thyroxine (T4) indicated in pediatric and adult patients for:

Hypothyroidism: As replacement in primary (thyroidal), secondary (pituitary), and tertiary (hypothalamic) congenital or acquired hypothyroidism.
Pituitary Thyrotropin (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone, TSH) Suppression: As an adjunct to surgery and radioiodine therapy in the management of thyrotropin-dependent well-differentiated thyroid cancer.

Limitations of Use:

Not indicated for suppression of benign thyroid nodules and nontoxic diffuse goiter in iodine-sufficient patients.
Not indicated for treatment of hypothyroidism during the recovery phase of subacute thyroiditis.

Source: the FDA label for Unithroid (Amneal Pharmaceuticals LLC), June 19, 2019. Full label on DailyMed

Good to know

It may look different from Unithroid (color, shape, or markings). That’s normal for an authorized generic.
If your prescription says “dispense as written,” the pharmacy needs your prescriber’s OK to give you the authorized generic.
Cash prices can differ a lot from one pharmacy to the next, so it can pay to ask two. With insurance, what you pay depends on your plan.
If your pharmacy doesn’t stock it, they can often order it within a day or two.
Don’t stop or change a medicine without talking to your pharmacist or prescriber.

Prices checked November 2, 2026. Prices change: confirm with the pharmacy before you fill. drugalt.com/drug/unithroid/
