So check your area to see if one can accommodate you this way.

T4 is converted with zinc and selenium. Being low on either one will reduce this conversion to T3 in tissues.
Mrs. D, I started on cytomel a week ago. Please clarify for me your statement : "compounding pharmacy who will compound it into a sustained release form ", does it mean a pharmacy will prepare the formula for you? Does this require a special prescription from a doctor?
Thank you.
