Should I use Nature Throid past use by date etc?

[ainslie]

I have some Nature Throid dated exp 3/21 does anyone know if it’s okay to use it, I know with a lot of meds it’s good for years later.

I heard a lot of Nature Throid has been recalled and is no longer available, is there some way of finding out if the stock I have is useless ie from a bad batch or was it that it wasn’t just quite as strong as it should be. .?

Thanks

It lacked potency. Would take out of date happily. Many on here do

It was said some batches lacked potency (although I read was said that had it been in the UK the difference was so minor it would not have been withdrawn) Many were taking it regardless with no issues, but some did report it being less effective.

I guess you can only try it, and you'll probably know pretty quickly if it's useless

These were the recalled batches: fda.gov/media/141862/download

But subpotent in my book is still better than none.

I’d take out of date Nature Throid. And probably will have to at some point later this year. Something to look forward to...

Thank you for the list, I will plough through the 16 pages tomorrow, seriously though that’s very helpful 😀

It’s quite the list, isn’t it?

I have been taking expired NP thyroid and have noticed no difference.

i think most ndt meds last a while as long as they are kept in a dark place cool away from moisture....which is key...yet i had to change from nature throid....i got very hypo on it...it was terrible...

Yes. as you should be using symptoms to dose NDT. Hence a weak batch you would just take a little more each week etc.
