Re: Is it okay to take t3 every 2 and 1/2 hours?

January 4, 2010

Thank you. Any thoughts or idea on dosing then? It is very hard to take the HC

and t3 on such different schedules. My HC doesn't last 4 hours like it used to

when I first started taking it. But back then I wasn't on T3, so I suppose I go

through the HC faster now.

Dosing:

9:30 -- HC, t3

12 -- HC

12:30 -- t3

2:30 -- HC

3:30 -- t3

5 to 5:30 - HC

6 - t3

See how terrible this schedule is! :-( My life revoles around taking my meds.

My doctor suggested SR t3, but I am worried to just swap over. I have no idea

how much my cynomel equates to in terms of sr t3. Nick wrote somewhere it might

60% as strong as cynomel.
