"How to replace Synthroid with Nutripak glandular: This is only a ball
park conversion factor since I don't think any thyroid glandular is
assayed.
0.2 mg (200 mcg) of Synthroid (T4) = 2 grains or 120 mg of Nutripak.
Example: client taking 0.75 mg of Synthroid.
Amount Nutripak needed = 120 mg X .72/.2 = 450 mg/60 mg = 7.5 grains/2
gr per tab = 3.75 tabs of Nutripak."
The Synthroid to armour conversion seems to be consistent with this link:

But I wonder where she's getting the .72 and the .2 numbers from.
Who is taking 750 mcg of Synthroid?
Thanks!
