    Splitting up Cytomel (T3) dosing

    Would you recommend splitting up the dose, Ive started fairly low and slow, at about .25, its been almost 2 weeks and I'm almost up to 0.5 , but would you recommend splitting the dosing now. Half in the morning, half in the afternoon instead of all in the morning once I have gotten up to higher dosing like 0.5? Or since Ive already taking 0.5 in the morning, taking 0.25 in the morning and 0.5 could hurt my thyroid in anyway?

    so you're taking 25mcg of T3 right now. I see no problem with taking the whole dose in the morning once you up it to 50mcg. The stuff has a fairly long half-life and taking it that early in the day will help with not having sleeping problems at night.

    ^Agreed. No need to split the dose, T3 has a 2 day half life, so you can take it all in one dose.

    Regardless of the dose, it doesn't make sense splitting the hormone up.
