Synthroid Vs. levothyroxine
How many of you out there are taking Synthroid everyday for their thyroid disorders? How many on Levothyroxine? Notice any difference between the two?
I have been told by my doc, that the federal standards of a generic med only need to meet 80percent of the original drug ingredients. That is why some people may not feel the same on a generic med vs brand name.
I feel a difference better difference with synthroid. Other meds, I tolerate generics:)

That would be great if a generic turns out to be the answer for you. Because it's much cheaper, for one thing.
I hope everything works out well for you.
Keep giving updates.

Sorry guys.........brain fogs' bad today - derr - I had my TT in '07 not '06 as stated above. Me thinks I need a strong coffee. ROFLMAO : )
Another Aussie here - I had my TT on Jan 17 2006 & up until 2 months ago I had been on varying doses of synthetic T4 (eutroxsig/oroxine). I'm now on Natural Thyroid Extract (NTE) - similar to 'Armour', still fine tuning, early days.
ooops I meant Eutroxsig
In Australia we don't get a choice..it's either Eutoxsig or Oroxine..the latter being the generic of the former....which is made by the same company...you might find a few on Armour here but it is quite rare to have that here.
