What Medication Helps In Suppressing The T3?
I am a 37 year old female being treated for hypothyroidism, recently had labs drawn because I am overly fatigued. TSH is 2.4 T4 0.97 and T3 2.5. T3 is elevated by hospital lab parameters. I am being treated with levoxyl would it be helpful to add a medication that suppresses T3.
