Hi,

WOW -- thanks for the info. No wonder why we haven't heard about this new medication.  Thanks All for the info to take to our doctors -- especially if your current med is causing issues there's a new alternative that is dye & filler free out there and reasonably priced!!!!

Does Synthroid contain gluten? I am sensitive to gluten so if it does, I'm going to ask my docotr if I can switch to Tirosint.

Synthroid is MCC and is not classified as Gluten free.

I had my appointment with my endo today, and I am making the switch to Tirosint!!
I am going to be his test subject! lol  
He said that they have been using this drug for a while over in Europe, so it is only new here in the United States.
He told me to let him know if I end up feeling like King Kong with a surge of energy from better absorption of a T4 med...lol

Why would Armour thyroid be linked as a tag to this medicine? Its not a part of it at all?
