cytomel and synthroid taken at same time?

by shellsfaith, Apr 16, 2009 09:32AM
I take Synthroid .1 and 5mcg Cytomel every day for hypothyroidism.  I have been taking them together in the morning an hour before any other medications, foods and 6 hours before any iron, calcium, or zinc.  Should the Synthroid be taken by itself completely?  I can take the Cytomel with breakfast and other meds later in the day, but wondered if taking the Cytomel at the exact same time as the Synthroid was somehow lowering the effectiveness/absorbtion of the Synthroid.
