Hi guys take Tiromel and Levo I just ordered a new batch of Tiromel last month but to me it looks and feels different from previous batches and can't see if formulation has changed anywhere anyone else find this?

I just don't trust the new pack I have got they are so different I have looked up the pharmaceutical website and no mention of change in formulation 🤷 so think they are duds I ha e a really bad stomach since start of year so not even taking anymore of them now not chancing it. 🙁 Thanks

Depends where you got it from but I have changed to getting Cynomel as my supplier of Tiromel supplied a pack of dud Tiromel pills to a friend. I don't know if it's a deliberate fraud or just something gone wrong in the storage. We also found the packaging had changed.

Is it good? If so would you mind messaging me with your supplier info? I would love to find one in the states cuz I need some new quickly as I have a bad batch right now. Thank you

Where do you buy your T3 from?

I take a large dose Tiromel and didn't think anything was amiss until I decided to use up some Cynomel I had set aside.

I took the same dose of Cynomel as the Tiromel and I felt shaky and tense - my

heart rate remained ok but I now feel the Tiromel may be weaker

I'll need to swop back to Tiromel and do a bit of experimenting!

This has been a problem here

I tried a small amount of cynomel after a bad batch of tiromel and I was desperate. I immediately got a fast racing heart. I'm thinking its not time release. We're you able to take it successfully? Thx

in reply to Anniegg62

As far as I know, synthetic brands of T3 (Cytomel, Cynomel, Tiromel etc) are never time release. Time release T3 is only available from compounding pharmacies and is a prescription only drug.

I am not aware of any factory-made liothyronine which is slow release/extended release/or whatever term they use.
