    This is why most people split their dose AM/PM.

    Well guys Im not trying to argue but the reason I asked is because thats what the FDA states. I copied this straight from the FDA on T3.

    Pharmacokinetics

    Since liothyronine sodium (T3) is not firmly bound to serum protein, it is readily available to body tissues. The onset of activity of liothyronine sodium is rapid, occurring within a few hours. Maximum pharmacologic response occurs within 2 or 3 days, providing early clinical response. The biological half-life is about 2-1/2 days.

    T3 is almost totally absorbed, 95 percent in 4 hours. The hormones contained in the natural preparations are absorbed in a manner similar to the synthetic hormones.

    It's interesting, i've seen in mutiple places that T3's half life is 2.5 days, and in many other places that the half life is 10 days.

    Lots of misinformation floating around out there... hard to discern the truth from everything.
