Armour vs thyrolar (thyroxine and liothyronine) which is better thyriod medicine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neither : The american thyroid association, the endocrine society and the american association of clinical endocrinologists all recommend the use of levothyroxine for the treatment of hypothyroidism and discourage the use of dessicated (dried) animal thyroid.
