Guest guest Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 If you are getting Time Cap Labs tablets, then you are getting the same thing in Armour, even if the insert only mentions the T4, and T3. What is on the tablets? Awhile back, someone sent me the following ingredients which are in Time Caps Labs. Note the first one: thyroid powder. That is the same thyroid powder as in Armour. This info is also in the Files in folder entitled ARMOUR vs. NATURETHROID vs. WESTHROID, etc , by the way. Janie ) GENERIC NATURAL THYROID by TIME-CAPS LABS CONTAIN: Thyroid Powder Microcrystalline cellulose Dicalcium phosphate Colloidal silicon dioxide Sodium starch glycolate Steric acid Mmagnesium stearate Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and " other ingredients " which we do not know. > I've been getting the generic Armour from Myrxforless, they're called Thyroid Tablets. I never had the " true " Armour. On the bottle it says it's from Time-Cap Labs, Inc. in Farmingdale, NY. I get the 3 grain tablets and it says that each tablet contains 114 mcg Levothyroxine (T4) and 27 mcg Liothyronine (T3). It doesn't say anything about T1, T2, or Calcitonin. And the paper insert doesn't mention T1, T2, or Calcitonin either. Am I taking the wrong Armour? > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 OK, If you say that these pills are equal to Armour I'll believe you. It's just that you wouldn't know it by reading their package insert. To answer your question, the writing on the tablet is: TCL 038 Thanks, Re: Generic Armour If you are getting Time Cap Labs tablets, then you are getting the same thing in Armour, even if the insert only mentions the T4, and T3.

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2004 Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 >>but the 2 grain is from Qualitest Pharmaceuticals manufactured by Vintage Pharmaceuticals.<< I have been searching this drug since receiving this post, and can't find out a whole lot about it. It is fairly newly approved drug, and it does say Thyroid USP and Lynda says it smells like Armour! SO I would have to think that no synthetic could smell like that! LOL I did find another source for it! You gals in the UK there is a pharmacy over there that is selling it too but both the places selling it are selling it as generic Armour, and it is billed as Thyroid extract which is basically what Armour is, I think we can safely assume it is the same, but time will tell as I also have an order in to MYRXFORLESS, so I will probably get some of it as well, and I can tell the difference in 2-3 days if it has not got the right stuff in it! *Artistic Grooming * Hurricane, WV Fat cat?

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2004 Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 Hi Lynda when did you place your order in Mexico. I ordered on teh 7th oct so hoping it is on it's way jus not sure of shipping time to UK. Although and keep everything crossed. My endo has told my GP to prescribe....Armour.. so I have an appointment tomorrow to pick up my prescription so maybe I won't need it after all although it could take weeks for Boots to get it in for me of course and I'm expecting a battle to actually get the script Dawn Ages Of Elegance makers of historical clothing, uniforms and bridalwear http://www.agesofelegance.co.uk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
