Also any advice re dose and how often. I don't have a good history of tolerating these drugs so I would like to go slow !!

25mcg of T3 is equal, in effect, to around 100mcg of levo. You can switch from one to another using the equivalent dose.

Thyroid hormones are not drugs, they are replacement hormones that enable our metabolism to work normally :)

What dose of levothyroxine are you taking at present and how long have you been diagnosed.

I'm taking now 1\4 tablet of naturethroid and feel terrible. Had to reduce constantly from 13\4 because of side effects. Levo also made me feel terrible at 25 mcg. Armour didn't like me. Sigh. 😥

Olsbird,

Did you try other brands of Levothyroxine?

1/4 tablet 25mcg T3 (6.25mcg) is equivalent to 18.75mcg Levothyroxine.

Yes. Mercury and can't remember the other one - red and gold packet.

Olsbird,

Perhaps you could try Wockhardt 25mcg Levothyroxine? It has less fillers than Mercury and Teva.
