I take liothyronine compounded for slow release instead of synthroid because it relives symptoms of hypothyroidism that synthroid could not, but I tried synthroid for years. Compounded T3 helps relive constipation, always feeling cold, hair growth, skin dryness, energy levels and easy weight gain. I have researched this topic and it seems some people have trouble converting t4 to t3 which is the active type of the hormone for metabolism. Bypassing t4, synthroid, and going directly to t3 is beneficial for me.

Hear their stories. Protect their own words. Protect their access to compounded medicines.

On this page, we can only touch on the data that demonstrates the importance of compounded medicines to the lives of millions of people in this country. While the decision to take this vital therapy from patients and physicians might be profitable for big pharmaceutical companies, it will be disastrous for the millions of patients that those same pharmaceutical companies cannot serve!

We encourage the appropriate committees in both the House and Senate to hold hearings on this critical issue.
