Experiences with

Liothyronine

Which Liothyronine ingredient is better, Liothyronine sodium or Liothyronine hydrochloride?

I have started a trial combination of Levothyroxine and Liothyronine and just wondered how quickly I could expect to see an improvement in symptoms? Thank you in advance

I was given a different brand of liothyronine and after taking it for a few weeks I felt my old thyroid symptoms coming back- the worst being anxiety/depression I have now gone back to taking my old brand how long should it take for me to feel ok again.

nocache=incoming-2286511#incoming-2286511 reveals that since June 2018 hospitals in North and West London have sent patients on liothyronine or requesting it to Prof Karim Meeran's 'liothyronine withdrawl clinic' at Charring Cross Hospital, part of Imperial Healthcare ICB.

So I've been on the roma liothyronine for around 6 months. I've had bad indigestion with it despite taking it with a large glass of water. So I mentioned to the nurse this morning that I was better on the tablets.

I usually buy liothyronine abroad, does anyone no if I can obtain this in England thanks

Does anyone find they have a preference for a specific brand of liothyronine? I’m wondering why I am feeling less well after a recent brand change. ( It could be a complete coincidence. ) Currently I seem to be stuck with what I’m given, and beggars can’t be choosers!

I have been on liothyronine for 10 years now following a thyroidectomy due to Graves’ disease. My local health trust are happy to prescribe this medication for me - but currently are unable to source a supply. Is anyone else in this situation?

Hi all. Had a great appointment with NHS endo who agreed to prescribe T3 on NHS. I have been taking T3 - Tybon Henning for approx 2 years. I havent started my Morningside yet due to calling the manufacturer and finding out that it has Acacia in it. I previously had a problem (quite severe) with Levo

Does this mean that levothyroxine liquid actually also contains liothyronine (T3)?

change for liothyronine appears to be 20 microgram tablets which have dropped very slightly from £51.54 to £50.16 for 28.

I normally split my Levo and my Liothyronine-: 25mcg Levo and 5 mcg Liothyronine at 7am then 37.5 Levo and 5mcg Liothyronine @ 9.40pm How should I take my meds please? Thank you 😊

Ive just been given Roma Liothyronine capsules, by nhs. Has anyone had good/not so good results?

Recently had an endocrinology consultant telephone me, telling me sary stories about liothyronine and how it can cause clots in heart tissue and other sccary things. I have not heard this before, and see it as a ruse to get me off my edpensive liothyronine.

Just querying if there is such a thing a a liquid Liothyronine T3 meds , like they do the Levo ?

87.5 levo 20 liothyronine Ft3 5.2 (3.6-6.3) Ft4 17(12-22) 87.5 levo 25 liothyronine ft3 5.8 (3.5-6.5) Ft4 17 (12-23)

Having somehow lost 4 days supply of lio whilst travelling around SE Asia I tried the pharmacies here in Thailand. Eventually I was directed to the major hospital only to have it confirmed that lio isn’t available in Thailand. So beware intrepid travellers.
