Hi Elaine, Thank you for your reply. My doctor is not ready for block and replace. Do you think i can lower my dose and add acetyl l-carnitine. Does it will help me. If yes, how much i can take PTU and l-carnitine. Thank you again.

Hi Sweet, I don't remember your PTU dose but or your levels but a dose as low as 6.25 mg is effective even when used every other day. Acetyl-l-carnitine helps lower thyroid antibodies and as they fall your thyroid hormone levels will fall over time. So it works indirectly. A dose of 500-1000 mg twice daily can be used. Best, elaine
