    Hi.

    I'm going to move to Ireland for sometime. I must use Synthroid as a regular medication.

    Can I bought this medication regularly in any pharmacy with my original prescription?

    Thanks.

    It is available in Ireland, but is often referred to as eltroxin.

    You'll probably need an Irish prescription however, so you'll need to see an Irish doctor for that.

    Correct, a Brazilian prescription isn't valid.
    Unless of course the Dr that wrote it happens to be registered in an EU country too. (If they are, make sure they write that on the prescription too!)
