ERFA Thyroid 60mg

[learner100]

Hello all. I wonder if anyone can translate this to tell me what quantities of T3 and T4 in mcg terms are in this tablet. My computer doesn't even have that backward tail u key to try to google it.... I have zero background in the sciences and am quite useless when it comes to this I'm afraid. I'm trying to find out what the ERFA 60mg tablet contains so I can find the closest NDT equivalent. Thanks so much.

"Desiccated thyroid 60 mg is usually considered equivalent to thyroglobulin 60 mg, levothyroxine sodium (T4) 0.1 mg or liothyronine sodium (T3) 25 μg."

You can get the "backward tail u key" character from my document:

dropbox.com/s/q00vyt5703f4u...

Or you could type "mcg" which is another way of indicating microgram.

I don't understand that. Erfa is a natural desiccated thyroid product!

60 milligrams is a sort of "metric" version of the grain measure. (Some companies converted to 65 milligrams.)

Erfa is a brand of desiccated thyroid. You can see the details of how much T4 and T3 are in the most commonly used brands of desiccated thyroid on the Thyroid UK website. Click this link and then scroll down the page until you get to the table: thyroiduk.org/tuk/treatment...
