Guest guest Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Hello everyone, Right now I am on 50 mcg of Synthroid and 5 mcg of Cytomel, 2x/day (in other words... 10mcg Cytomel). My doc recently gave the ok to go up to 5mcg more of Cytomel. This is great and frustrating to me at the same time... frustrating because this 3rd time of day I plan to take my Cytomel is when I want to take my vitamin... and the instructions on my Cytomel clearly state not to take it within 4 hours of any vitamin. I talked about this vitamin predicament with my doctor and she explained to me that it's not the multivitamin in general that is the concern with taking it near Cytomel dosing... but anything with calcium or Iron. I can find a vitamin without Iron no problem... but I cannot find anything with less than 450 mcg Calcium (which is actually dicalcium phosphate... dunno if that's any different than regular calcium). Can anyone please advise as to if this calcium thing is legit or if it's bunk? I really want to be back on my vitamin!!!! Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
