Maybe slightly reduce your dose to see if that helps reduce the symptoms you're having.

I also have read that Nature Throid may have changed some fillers/binders which could affect some patients.

After the backorder with RLC NDT patients complained of hypo symptoms .

I have been using Thyroid s from Thailand for three years now. Last year I tried NT and it made me ill so I am back to my two grains of Thyroid s and now feel well again. Many people on here are having trouble with NT lately, those who have been taking it for years.

thank you....i have been considering using thiroyd or thyroid -s and i did use thiroyd several years ago...but i am in usa so it takes a month to get it....the only reason i was using thiroyd instead of thyroid s was the less fillers and i went back to prescription thinking it may be more reliable......i did hear that they had a national problem with

finding the swine to do all meds since they were some kind of problem which i wondered if it effected all ndt meds..? did you change grain per grain.....

Hi I use thyroid s, the fillers are not a problem for me, maybe long term, I have no other health issues besides having no thyroid.

Yes I started on a half and increased every 10 days, three put me over the FT3 top range and I am now on 2 grains taken one at 6.am and the other at 2.pm.

Before my thyroid was removed three years ago it was working well and I wasn't on any medication. I assumed, wrongly that taking Levo would be the way forward.

Nothing in my opinion is going to working the same as a working thyroid which is 24 hours a day. We can only try to do the best we can, it's very trial and error.

I also do no like the list of fillers in Thyroid s but cannot afford Armour.
