Guest guest Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 You take the 5 mcg? Did you have the pharmacy look up what batch number your prescription was from and verify that yours was definitely from a recalled one? If so, give it a few days until they get the information themselves and have time to process it. If there is a recall the manufacturer has to stand behind it.

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 They don't put the batch number on the bottle or the receipt. They showed me two little bottles that they had, with supposedly safe numbers, but I don't see why the batch number is not on my bottle. They could put anything in there and no one would know. Please do me a favor Kerry and answer on my email. I've changed my settings to web only because there's so much I can't deal with them all right now. Thanks. <>Roni Immortality exists!

They showed me two little bottles that they had, with supposedly safe numbers, but I don't see why the batch number is not on my bottle. They could put anything in there and no one would know. I wouldn't worry, they are not contaminated or otherwise harm full. They may be slightly less strong than standard when coming to the end of the batch life. T3 requirements are quite dynamic anyway, especially if you are increasing dose still, all it means is that you need to take slightly more than you would otherwise and might need slightly less of the next batch. This is not the end of the world, they are fine to use Nick -- for more information on RT3 and Thyroid Resistance go to www.thyroid-rt3.com For lots of good information of adrenal issues http://www.nthadrenalsweb.com/ and the adrenal group on http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
