Jefner My understanding is that you treat it the same as any other thyroid med - one hour before or two hours after food and a couple of hours away from supplements, four hours away from iron. Timing can be difficult.

sttm group say you can eat with t3 but I don't think I will be doing that. Just had my first 5mcg of the day
