Cytomel Online Prescription

Cytomel - Overview

Cytomel is a medication sometimes used as replacement therapy for people with hypothyroidism and in several other situations. People who might need a Cytomel prescription can connect with a medical provider using Push Health who can prescribe Cytomel T3, including Cytomel generic, when appropriate to do so.

What Is Cytomel?

Cytomel contains the active ingredient liothyronine sodium. Cytomel belongs to a class of medications known as L-triiodothyronine (T3) hormone. Cytomel is used in a variety of situations related to thyroid gland health, including as replacement therapy in hypothyroidism, pituitary thyrotropin suppression, and thyroid suppression testing. Cytomel activates special receptor proteins in thyroid cells which leads to changes in thyroid activity. Cytomel should not be used to suppress benign thyroid nodules or during the recovery period after subacute thyroiditis. The active ingredient in Cytomel is also found in the medication Armour Thyroid.

Cytomel - Dosage and Cost

Cytomel is available as Cytomel 5 mcg tablets, Cytomel 25 mcg tablets and Cytomel 50 mcg tablets. Cytomel tablets are round and whitish in color. Cytomel dosing depends on the individual health needs of the patient and the judgement of the prescribing medical provider. In general, Cytomel dosages should be adjusted based on results from TSH testing and other lab test results. After oral administration, Cytomel is nearly completely absorbed and is transported by proteins in the plasma. The active ingredient in Cytomel is largely broken down by the liver after which it is excreted out of the body in the urine. Branded Cytomel is moderately affordable, costing approximately $3 per Cytomel 5 mcg tablet. Cytomel coupons can sometimes be found online and some insurance plans may also cover costs associated with Cytomel T3 tablets.

Can I Buy Cytomel Online?

Cytomel OTC is not available as Cytomel is a prescription medication, meaning that one must consult a medical provider to obtain Cytomel from a pharmacy in the United States. Because of this, one cannot just buy Cytomel online. People who need Cytomel T3 medication, however, can use Push Health to connect with a local medical provider who can prescribe Cytomel, including Cytomel generic, when appropriate to do so.

Cytomel - Side Effects

Before using Cytomel prescription medication, it is important to discuss concerns and possible side effects with a pharmacist and medical provider. Side effects that may result from Cytomel medication use include weight loss, diarrhea, tremors, palpitations, menstrual irregularities, temperature intolerance and fatigue. Cytomel should be used cautiously in people with cardiovascular disease, adrenal health issues and decreased bone density. Cytomel and alcohol should not be used together. People with a known hypersensitivity or allergy to Cytomel T3 or ingredients in the medication should not use it.
