I wondered that too,
Ffosse.
Tabs, if you are concerned about it, ask your GP why he sends your prescription via that firm and not your local pharmacy.
I have Levothyroxine too, but because it's on repeat, I just go to the pharmacy a week or so before I run out, and it's always ready there in a bag waiting for me to collect.
The pharmacist told me he reapplies for any repeat prescriptions from the Doc's 2 weeks before they run out, so it's all ready and bagged up for anyone when they call in.
I think if someone is poorly and can't get out, they do a van delivery service from the pharmacy too.
