How Lemonaid can help
We offer a convenient, simple and affordable way to manage your hypothyroidism (low thyroid) online without you going anywhere.
Our doctors and nurse practitioners prescribe levothyroxine. Our Lemonaid Pharmacy ships your thyroid treatment direct to your door with FREE fast delivery. Ask us about next day delivery if you need it.
We can prescribe a 1 month supply or 3 month supply of levothyroxine. To get a 3 month supply you need to do thyroid blood work with Lemonaid. We order lab work at Quest Diagnostics, the largest lab company in the US. They have labs all over the US.
We’re unable to diagnose hypothyroidism online. To get thyroid meds from Lemonaid you need to have been diagnosed with low thyroid already and you’ve been taking levothyroxine for at least a year
Low cost one-time labs
You need to get the labs done if you want us give you a 3 month supply of levothyroxine.
The lab test itself only costs you $30.50 because we’ve negotiated great prices to keep your costs low.
We order all our lab tests through Quest Diagnostics. If we order labs, we’ll test your thyroid (TSH). You have to pay Lemonaid for the lab fees. You can’t use your insurance to pay for the labs.
Find your nearest Quest Diagnostics location. Quest Diagnostics has thousands of locations around the country.
It’s important to select one that allows you to book an appointment online. You don’t need to actually book an appointment, but if the location lets you book online appointments, then we know they’re connected to the online ordering system that we use to order your thyroid (TSH) lab.
Treatment & risks
Levothyroxine is the only thyroid medicine we can prescribe online. We don’t prescribe other classes of thyroid meds. You’ll need to see a doctor or nurse practitioner in person if you want one of these other thyroid drugs.
Levothyroxine is generally safe but can cause rare and serious side effects like bone loss and heart arrhythmias (atrial fibrillation) if the dosage you’re prescribed is too much for your body. These risks increase if you take other prescription medicines, have a change in weight, or are not taking the medicine as prescribed by your doctor or nurse practitioner. So it’s important to let us know if any of these changes occur or you’re not taking the levothyroxine exactly as we told you to take it.
Before taking any medicine we prescribe, always read the treatment plan we send you and the package insert that comes with your medicine for a full list of side effects and warnings.
