Cytomel is a fast acting T3 so symptoms of hunger and energy may be experienced. I am on Armour thyroid and have been on it for 6 mths. Armour has a balance of all the T's and I notice that my appetite has increased.
Hi, I was taking the phendimetrizine before with my syn, was working pretty well, with no heart rhythm problems, but I have just gotten cytomel added to my agenda on Friday and have not taken the phen since, because I was not sure, but in reference to the cytomel, does this have to be taken on empty stomach and does calcium affect, kinda like the syn--and can the syn and cytomel be taken at the same time, or should I take one in the am and one in the pm?? I am on 5mcg of cytomel and 0.50mcg of syn?/ I am not that familiar with cytomel, I noticed over the weekend that it is making me hungry?? Is this one of the side effects, I
Would usually not take phendimetrizine (an amphetamine) with T3 (a stimulating thyroid hormone). Over-stimulation can cause oily-skin break-outs, but more-over is over-stimulating to the heart and can cause heart rhythm problems and high blood-pressure.
