T3 (Cytomel) is the popular brand name for the drug liothyronine sodium. This isn't an anabolic steroid but a thyroid hormone. It's used medically to treat cases of thyroid deficiency, obesity, certain metabolic diseases and fatigue.

When administered, T3 (Cytomel) step-ups the patient's metabolic process. The result is an expanded rate of cellular action (noted by a more speedy utilization of carbohydrates, fats and proteins).

Bodybuilders are especially attracted to this drug for its power to burn off body extra fat. Most frequently utilised during contest preparation, one can greatly step-down the number of stored fat without being forced to badly restrict calories.

To this end T3 (Cytomel) is generally applied in conjunction with Clenbuterol and can make extremely spectacular results. This combination has become very popular in late years, without doubt responsible for a lot of ripped on-stage physiques.

It's also noted by many that when thyroid hormones are applied in conjunction with steroids, an expanded anabolic effect can be seen (notably greater than if the steroids are applied alone). This is probably due to faster utilization of proteins by the body, raising the rate for new muscle accumulation.

Care should be taken if one is considering applying this drug. When using (T3) Cytomel, one must think of to step-up the dose slowly. Usually one 25mcg pill is used on the first day, and the dose is thereafter raised by one pill every 3 of 4 days for a maximum dose of 100 mcg.This will assist the body adjust to the expanded thyroid hormone, hopefully avoiding any sudden ``shock`` to the system.

The daily dosage should be split equally throughout the day too, in an effort to keep blood levels steadier.

Women are more sensitive to the side effects of Cytomel than men, and normally decide not to use no more than 50mcg per day.

It is significant to stress that a cycle should last no longer than six weeks and it should never be stopped at once. As slowly as the dose was built up it should be lowered as well, 1 tablet every 3-4 days. Using T3 (Cytomel) for too long and/or at too high a dose can effect in a perm thyroid insufficiency. After doing such, one might need to be treated with a drug like T3 (Cytomel) for life. It's a good idea to first consult your physician and have your thyroid function tested. 

An athlete should also make sure never to buy an injectable form of this drug. It's usually an emergency room product, much too powerful for athletic apply.

Since T-3 (Cytomel)is the most powerful thyroid hormone athletes are applying, this is normally not the starting point for a novice. Earlier applying such a powerful product, it's a good idea to become familiar with a weaker products. An middle point is Synthroid (synthetic T-4), still weaker in activity than Cytomel. Once the user is ready even so, the fat burning effect of this hormone can be extremely dramatic.
