Drug pricing is set separately in each country through different negotiation, regulatory, and distribution systems, so the same medication can legitimately carry different price tags on either side of the border.

Medicare Part D and other Medicare prescription drug plans typically cover the generic form of Cytomel, liothyronine.

Cytomel (liothyronine) is a synthetic thyroid hormone prescribed primarily for hypothyroidism (low thyroid hormone levels). It is also used in the management of thyroid cancer, for diagnostic testing of thyroid function, and to reduce an enlarged thyroid gland. Before starting treatment, inform your doctor of any medical history, including diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis, adrenal gland issues, bleeding disorders, or allergies to thyroid medications. Discuss pregnancy, breastfeeding, and all other medications you take—including prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, and supplements—as Cytomel can interact with several substances, such as certain cholesterol and phosphate binders, which should be taken at least four hours apart.
