Hi All,

I was just wondering if people had experience with switching brands and manufactuerers with T3.

Although both tablets are same dosage; have people had to take more tiromel than they would have of cytomel? Does cytomel have a stronger effect?

Boudivella,

Members seem to find Tiromel weaker than some other brands so you may need to increase dose slightly if you are switching from Pfizer Cytomel to Tiromel.
