Guest guest Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 > Does anyone know what the fillers are Geater Pharma Thiroyd? I have looked on Stop the Thyroid Madness but when the page was written the information about fillers wasn't available. Hi Judy, I once enquired about the fillers in Thiroyd from Greater Pharma, but they would not say. All I could get out of them is that Thiroyd does not contain Lactose. I am however let to believe that there are a lot less fillers in Thiroyd than in ThyroidS for instance. - I take Thiroyd myself (great stuff).

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 I'll try to find my Thiroyd paperwork and see what it says. In the meantime this is what Thyroid-S says: THYROID-S is from Sriprasit Pharma Co., Ltd. in Thailand (sister company of Sriprasit Dispensary R.O.P.) Advertising states that Sriprasit Pharma is " a leading importer of pharmaceutical products, and has been a GMP and ISO 9002-certified manufacturer of pharmaceutical products. " Patients report they are quite pleased with this product. Sriprasit states Thyroid-s is gluten-free, but a patient has reported classic gluten digestive symptoms with it. To see a photo of the tablet, go here. Tablets are light brown, round, coated. The ingredients, according to Pongsak Songpaisan of Sriprasit are: Thyroid extract USP Lactose (a milk sugar and is a filler) PVP K90 (Polyvinylpyrolidone; water soluble coating/binder; no known hazard) Avicel (microcrystalline cellulose; holds product together) Aerosil (silicic acid powder; help disperse the ingredients) Sodium starch glycolate (helps dissolute/disintegrate the pill) Magnesium stearate (filling agent) Eudragit (a common sustain released coating) Methocel (a water soluble cellulose ether-helps bind pill) Talcum (a filler) Ponceau 4r lake (red additive-aluminum) Tartrazine lake (yellow additive-aluminum) Brilliant blue FCF lake (blue additive-aluminum) Sunset yellow FCF (yellow additive) Titanium dioxide (white) PEG 6000 (water soluble polymer; binder) Dimethicone solution (Thanks to Ruth-Ann for obtaining the ingredients list above; descriptions added) On 8 & #8201;– & #8201;09, received an email from a US Doctor who received the following list after emailing Sriprasit: Fillers used: Corn starch, actose, Avicel (microcrystalline cellulose; MCC) Binders used: PVP K-90 (Polyvinylpyrrolidone) Preservatives used: Methyl paraben, Propyl paraben Content in one tablet (60 mg thyroid extract): approximately 38 mcg Levothyroxine (T4) and 9 mcg Liothyronine (T3) Source of extract: Porcine JOT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tracy Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 where do you buy Thiroyd from? I just read about it and I want to try it bc it doesn't have any aluminum in it and I reacted badly to sythroid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
