Guest guest Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 ERFA Thyroid from Canada is natural desiccated thyroid in a pill similar to the old Armour. If you are getting compounded T3/T4, you are getting synthetics. It is also possible to get compounded desiccated thyroid from certain compounders. > > > Hi this is Ginger from Wylie reporting.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 I am now getting the compounded porcine product from WIP. Would the canadian product be better or closer to armour?Sent from my iPhone ERFA Thyroid from Canada is natural desiccated thyroid in a pill similar to the old Armour.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 If you are doing well on the compound, then I would stick with it. If not, then you might want to try the ERFA. Or you might want to try a different compounding pharmacy. Be aware that a few folks have gotten severe GI problems on the ERFA. I chose the ERFA over the compound, because I like to be able to adjust my dose. What you may need is highly individual. > > >> > > What is the difference between the Canadian thy meds and > > compounded t4/> > > t3?
