I'm on prescribed T3 (naturally-derived), at 75 mcg/day. That's due to a medical problem though. I'll be on that same dose most likely lifelong, unless they come up with some kind of a cure for aldosteronism besides a complicated and seldom-successful surgery on the adrenal gland.
My STRONG advice is to treat it very carefully, and only if a doctor says you need it. It's so critical as to the dose, that you have to start on a very low dose, and have repeated blood tests and heart workups until the T3/T4 levels are balanced correctly. If not balanced, it can cause a heart attack, as well as permanent damage to the endocrine system.
