cytomel dosing question! help.? Day 5 ...

[Guest guest]

Hi!

I have been off of a 2 week naturethroid trial for a month now, and I started

cynomel (grossman from mexico) 5 days ago. I started taking 1/4

25mcg 4x a day, 3 hours apart. Today is day 5, and I took 1/2 at 6am today

(12.5 mcg).

I have questions about dosing... I am super confused. From the website

http://thyroid-rt3.com/dosing.htm (which I've read about 100 times!)

it says:

When you start at a low dose the 25mcg tablets break into quarters with care

your initial dose increases can be by filling in blank time slots.

Once they are all filled in with quarter tablet doses you can start increasing

them to half tablet doses one at a time starting with the morning dose.

Once you are on half a tablet at each slot again you can start increasing to a

while tablet at each starting in the morning.

1. Does this mean the rest of my doses should stay at 1/4 (6.25 mcg) today?

2. When do I start upping to 1/2 for all 4 doses?

3. Should i be taking a 5th dose? And if so, how much?

Also, I am taking this sublingually. Any thoughts on that?

Any input is SO appreciated! I was originally diagnosed with high rt3

over 2 years ago, and I was on compounded t3 from Holtorf Med. for about 8

months and stopped taking it Jan. 09. It didn't do much, at the time anyway....

Thank you!!!
