Help, need your help
Do I need to take a higher dose of
Synthroid
or a lower dose of
Synthroid
. I can’t remember how that works. My T3 and T4 are within normal ranges.

Looking for suggestions
Should I push for
synthroid
and will it help control the size of my thyroid. Or should I leave well enough alone. Tia

cytomel and food
this is likely a silly question, but do the same rules apply to cytomel as
synthroid
when it comes to taking on an empty stomach? My
synthroid
bottle has a warning on it about not taking it with iron or magnesium and taking an hour away from food or drink. My cytomel doesn't have the same warning.

Needing advice/suggestions re tweaking NDT
So, I’m presently taking 90 Erfa + 25
Synthroid
, all at once upon waking. I need to make some changes because I’ve lost half the hair on my head, gained 7 lbs and can’t loose the weight, diet has not changed. Been on NDT for the past 2-3 years, previously on
Synthroid
+ Cytomel.

synthroid

Synthroid

Best UK substitue for US Synthroid
Hi, I lived in the US for over 20 years and was prescribed
Synthroid
for underactive Thyroid. I found that the generic levothyroxine brand was not effective. I have moved back to the UK and would like to find a brand that is as close to
Synthroid
as possible.

Panic Attacks while taking Cytomel
Ever since my dr put me in5mg of Cytomel to add to the .88mcg of
Synthroid
I feel like I’m going crazy. It’s been 6 months now. Has anyone else experienced this aweful side effect and did the panic/anxiety attack quit once stopped.

Synthroid vs Cytomel's effect on TSH Suppression
So here is my question: If I don't want TSH to be overly suppressed between here and there, can I only take 5 mg Cytomel per day (instead of 10 mcg Cytomel per day) along with the 100 mcg
Synthroid
in the morning? That is, which has a quicker effect on TSH levels, Cytomel or
Synthroid
? Thanks!

Hypothyroid Labs In The Pits
Drugs used for past 6 months: 125mcg
Synthroid
and 1.5 mcgs Liothyronine. (I will admit that I was using
Synthroid
every other day, and the Liothyronine on the other days, so it's my own fault that I'm in the pits.
