Taking Cynomel Sublingually - What's the Trick?

[Guest guest]

I just tried it for the first time this morning and it took FOREVER to

dissolve...at least half an hour. Is there a trick to getting it to dissolve

faster? I broke it into half a tab and a quarter of a tab.

Different brands probably dissolve at different rates.

I actually chomp mine into tiny bits and then let those dissolve under my

tongue. They are gone in a matter of minutes. I can imagine it would take quite

a while otherwise.

I just tried doing that, but couldn't get the chomped-up pieces under my

tongue...it just went everywhere and I ended up swallowing it. This sucks.

Hi Nick and all - there's no need to take Cytomel sublingually, it is

designed to be taken orally. It doesn't matter whether you have eaten or

not either.

Unless you're trying to figure out times to take iron, like I am..

It does matter Sheila. Some people do not absorb well. I felt nothing from

swallowing armour until I started to sublingual. Sublingual HC works much

better too and both those were designed to be swallowed. Food does affect t3 so

it's best to sublingual. I haven't had any problems getting cynomel to

dissolve. Rainbowbrite, maybe a smidge of sugar under your tongue will help

dissolve it.

Hmm, I never thought about how I get them under my tongue, but somehow I do. I

guess, now that I think abou it, I use only my front teeth and then roll the

pieces quickly under my tongue. If you used your molars, I can see how it would

stick in your teeth.

Maybe just crush it and then drop it under your tongue with a spoon?

That's a good idea. I'll try crushing it up tomorrow and adding a tiny bit of

sugar to it. Will let ya'll know how it goes Thanks for the advice!

Yes, let us know. I would feel better to know I actually helped someone here.

How in the world can you take HC sublingually. It's very bitter even when I

taste it when swallowing it.

Thanks, Alayna

It's bitter but not that bad. If you keep it under your tongue while it's

dissolving, you can't really taste it. Others do it too.

Yes, HC can be done sublingually and does work better for some!! I was asked a question, and I answered it. I gave my 2 cents about doing the t3 with a tiny amount of sugar, honey would work too.

No, you do NOT take HC sublingually - this discussion is about cytomel.Another thing you can do to help your absorption of cytomel/cynomel is to chew it up first.>> How in the world can you take HC sublingually. It's very bitter even when I taste it when swallowing it.> > Thanks, Alayna> >

[Guest guest]

Well it did work a little better that way, but still took too long for my

liking. I think for now I'll stick to swallowing it and taking my iron at

bedtime. Thanks anyway
