Hi I've been taking nutri adrenal extra and now have a prescription for Armour can I take both of these together ? As I am not sure if the adrenal extra is covered by taking NDT

I have been advised to take q10 as well and Vit D ( been having a problem with vit D for years )

Thank you in advance

Yes, they can, although I have seen it recommended that you stop them for the first week on NDT while it builds up in your system. However I only read that after I had started on NDT so I carried on with them and didn't have any side effects.

I know what you mean, so much to take in just when you feel so poorly you can't think straight. Good luck xx

BTW, did you see someone privately to get prescribed armour?

Yes I got a private prescription as my own GP would not acknowledge any thing so I have changed GP as well as seeing pirate GP. And she was lovely xxx

hi Amandaji - I would be a bit careful - when I took both I didn't feel any different but my blood pressure shot up - to 200+ when I stopped the Nutri adrenal extra it went down again - my cortisol had always been low but once I started on t3 only it seemed to normalise - I need to take another test though to see if this still holds true
