Its not Cytomel (T3), its Synthroid (T4). Cytomel is liothyronine sodium. Later

it isnt as strong as T3, but I believe it comes with less risk of sides.

I'd get rid of it. Cytomel is not that expensive. T4 has to be converted to T3 in the body to be active. There are so many factors that influence the rate of conversion that its alot like comparing prohormones to AAS. The levels will not be as dependable and the results not as predictable.

yes, you definitely got t4, not t3.  levothyroxine is the weaker version.  they come under, to name a couple, brand names:  synthroid, or levoxyl.

synthroid is what they give people who don't have normally functioning thyroid glands.  It will work like T3, however, I don't know anything about what doseages are necessary, or what doseages will be damaging to your long-term thyroid function.  I personally wouldn't mess with it.
