T-3 half-life???

[Fumunda]

So what's the final verdict on T-3 half-life?....I've seen mixed opinions on this....Some say all at once is ok.....Some say spread it out through the day.....Ive always done 1 dosage/day with good results, but wanted some more opinions from you guys & gals...Fumunda

You should spread it out. It has a very short half life. When you get down to the low low dosages like 12.5 mcgs a day then just take it all at once. But when your up to like 75 mcgs a day then spread the three pills out.

Ivan Drago from anabolic fitness told me that it is 2.5 days and that is why you should take it all in the morning.

Upon researching it I found doctors recommend taking the full dose in the morning on an empty stomach.

I didn't find the half life myself but I trust Ivan Drago he is a very knowledgeable bro and he is always reading medline and such.

Anybody else have any info on this? I am up to 50mcg split twice a day, but would like to get optimal results. Also has anyone noticed side effects to be any worse if the entire dosage is taken all at once in the a.m.?

bump for more conflicting opinions......If anyone has a link with data to back-up the half-life data, I would greatly appreciate it....Fumunda

OK T-3 HALF LIFE IS 2.5 DAYS. WHY THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO SPREAD OUT DOSE.. IT MAKES NO DIFFRENCE.. ASK ANY DOCTOR THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO MAKE SURE YOU ABSORB ALL OF THE MEDICATION.. IS FIRST THING IN THE MORNING ON AN EMPTY STOMACH..

No problem Bubba LOL
I am going to be taking mine through out the day to try and keep a constant level in my system. There was a post about .

That quote was by mustang_18. He knows his shit from what I could tell. I disagree with you guys that take it all at once. I did a lot of research on this and consistantly found infromation that stated to spread the dosage out. People that did take it all at once were getting headaches from the sudden high dosage of t3 all at once. I bet it doesn't matter that much either way, but if I do it agian I'm gonna split the dosage because it worked GREAT for me before.

I found a good link.

It's a drug profile kinda of like the Physician Desk Reference.

It's half-life is 1 day not 2.5 days.

I posted a similar question a few weeks ago you may want to have a look if it helps as there were some good replies.

From experience i found better results taking all AM on an empty stomach rather than spreading over the day.
This is recommended for best absorbtion rate and must admit worked better for me.

Good Luck
