Mixing brands of T3

Does anyone take 2 different brands of T3 together? I’m currently taking unipharma , and have received my Thybon Henning from Germany but not used it yet , I’m on 12.5 unipharma , in a split dose , but not due my blood test until early January, I’ve reduced from 18.75 as my T3 was too high 133% through the range and now starting to feel the effects of reducing the dose . If I took 10mcg of Thybon and 6.25mcg of unipharma that might be where I need to be , but not sure if taking different brands would be ok ?

It's OK to take different brands, although some people find some brands better than others. I find Thybon Henning is excellent and it's easy to split by snapping along the score line. The tablet is relatively large and flat, so easier to split.

I find it gentle and stable but of equal strength.
