Advice - How to take NDT with Lio

[Veritate]

I wondered could someone advise on how to take both of these together.

Having been on NDT for many years I decided to give T3 a go instead. Been on it 2 months and my body likes it. However rashes/hives have developed on my lower legs and I remember having this itchy, unsightly symptom before ever taking NDT.

I’d like to take the 2 together so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

You will need to provide information about the dose of NDT that you were taking, the dose of T3 that you have been taking instead, your symptoms on both (apart from the hives) and any recent blood tests. There is not enough information in your post for anyone to help you.

Thank you for your reply and apologies for the delay in mine. I was taking 3 x Thyroid S for years, reduced to 2 & 3/4 after a while of feeling rough. This seemed to help. On feeling rough again is when I gave T3 a try. Been on T3 only since this Jan and so far I’m on 15mcg in one dose first thing waking and seeing how it goes going by my symptons. No recent bloods although could do with organising them.

Could it be something to do with the brand of liothyronine? The excipients (fillers) in the tablets?

Have you tried taking an antihistamine?

Thanks for reminding me about the excipients as I hadn’t given them a thought. I’ll try antihistamine.
