Hi, I've been taking 50mg of Levo and now 10mg of t3 per day and been feeling quite good mood wise etc. How do I start taking nature thyroid RLC labs that arrived yesterday in the post? I bought 100 pills of quarter grain, to start slowly. Any advice pls.

Minus, The nearest equivalent dose is 1.25 grains containing 47.5mcg T4 plus 11.25mcg T3.

Minus, you'll become very hypothyroid on 1/4 grain. You've been taking T4+T3 so you can switch straight over to 1.25 grains.
