Reverse T3 in Patients with Hypothyroidism on Different Thyroid Hormone Replacement – Dr. Friedman Presents

In this informative presentation, Dr. Theodore C. Friedman, a leading endocrinologist, explores the role of reverse T3 (rT3) in patients with hypothyroidism undergoing various forms of thyroid hormone replacement therapy. Drawing from real-world clinical data and years of patient care, Dr. Friedman compares rT3 levels in individuals taking levothyroxine (T4-only), synthetic T4/T3 combinations, desiccated thyroid extract (DTE), and no treatment.

Key topics covered include:

What is reverse T3, and why does it matter?

How different thyroid medications affect rT3 levels

The impact of elevated rT3 on persistent hypothyroid symptoms

Clinical insights into optimizing treatment for improved symptom relief

Based on data from nearly 1,000 patients, Dr. Friedman reveals how T4-only therapy often leads to higher rT3, while T3-containing regimens—especially DTE—are associated with lower levels and potentially better outcomes for symptomatic patients.

Whether you're a healthcare provider, patient, or student of endocrinology, this video offers evidence-based insights into why measuring reverse T3 may be a helpful clinical tool—and not a waste of time.

Find out how reverse T3 can influence treatment decisions and improve quality of life for those struggling with lingering hypothyroid symptoms despite “normal” lab results.
