Uhh, Rita.....that statement made by your doc classifies for my GIVE

ME A BREAK folder. Forest Pharmaceuticals is following the

requirements for product formulation consistancy standards as

established by the USP (United State Pharmacopia)!!! Even Forest

states:

" To ensure that Armour® Thyroid tablets are consistently potent from

tablet to tablet and lot to lot, analytical tests are performed on

the thyroid powder (raw material) and on the actual tablets

(finished product) to measure actual T4 and T3 activity.

Different lots of thyroid powder are mixed together and analyzed to

achieve the desired ratio of T4 to T3 in each lot of tablets. This

method ensures that each strength of Armour® Thyroid will be

consistent with the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) official

standards and specifications for desiccated thyroid lot-to-lot

consistency. The ratio of T4 to T3 equals 4.22:1 (4.22 parts of T4

to one part of T3). "

If I was in your shoes, I'd INSIST that I want to be put on Armour,

period. You are missing out on the T4, T2, T1 and calcitonin.

(And even IF the FDA did pull it, you can be benefitting from it ALL

THIS TIME!!)

UM, that is the blanket statement made by every doctor that is bought & paid for

by Synthroid. I have heard it SO many times I just want to throw up when I hear

it now! You might ask them how come Synthroid is the one that gets recalled for

potency issues and not Armour????

That's right, many many many times, and that also includes Levoxyl and other

synthetic T4 meds, except for Unithroid. Armour hasn't been recalled, that

I know of, and certainly not during our " thyroid knowledge times " . Most of

us keep up with ALL the news on the sbjct here and on other thyroid groups

as well. $ynthroid has been drug through the courts, having to pay off

people in a judgment because of their false statements to the public. This

has NEVER happened with Armour. However, many falso statements have been

made ABOUT Armour by seeds from pharmaceutical companies who would like to

see it go down the drain. How come so many millions are taking it

worldwide, with no advertisement and such? Because the proof is in the

puddin'.

and - ask them why it took so long for synthroid to get approval - why they

tried to fight having to get approval - and to ignore the FDA when it was

required that they get approval -
