When To Stop Levothyroxine?

[jgelliss]

Thank You In Advance For The Wonderful Members.I'm going to my Dr and have an afternoon appointment. That is the only time I can have an appointment and he draws the labs.

My question is when to stop my Levothyroxine before my Wednesday afternoon appointment about 3pm?

I stopped my B-Complex and the extra Biotin that I take.

Thank you so much .

Do you normally take your levothyroxine early morning or bedtime?

aim for last dose levothyroxine 24 hours before test Which brand

And split your T3 so last dose is 8-12 hours before test

Thank you so much SD. I dose with 150mcg T4 and 5mcg T3 bed time. I tried several ways and this works best for me.

So day before test, suggest you take Levo earlier than normal at 3pm

And split your T3 as 2.5mcg on morning of test and 2.5mcg after test

Thank You so so much SD. I will do exactly that way.

SD I just want to double check that Monday I don't take any T4 and Tuesday the day before labs I take my T4 3pm?

[jgelliss in reply to jgelliss]

SD I now understand it. Thank you again.

I would take Monday dose as per normal

But bring Tuesday evening dose earlier to 3pm

Test Wednesday afternoon at 3pm

And take Wednesday evening dose as per normal
