[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Been on Synthroid since my 20s after radiation. After 25 years on thyroid meds here are some tips: Take the name brand! The dosing is much more precise. There are also some coupons online to help lower the price. I know it says make sure to take an hour before or after eating. This is true; however, for maximum benefit take it at least an hour from dairy. Calcium binds with the drug so you absorb less. You do not have to take it in the morning! You just need to take it at the same time everyday. I actually take mine before bed. This way it is very far from my last meal (dinner) and my bedtime is more consistent than my wake-up time. Some have luck adding T3, particularly if you have Hashimotos. T3 generic seems to work okay for me. Though my situation is a little different. Most endocrinologist are not that willing to experiment so good luck![/quote] OP here. Thank you, this was informative![/quote]
