Question How to take Cytomel twice a day?

Hi! Today is my first day of taking Cytomel, and I'm a little confused about the dosing schedule. My endo said to take it twice daily on an empty stomach. So, I took the first dose this morning with my Synthroid. If I eat lunch now (it's 11:30 am), does that mean I cannot take the second dose until 4 hours later--around 3:30 pm? Will that have any effect on my sleeping habits?

Also, I was wondering how I can fit my vitamins into this schedule. I usually take my multivitamin with lunch; but, since I will be taking the Cytomel again mid-afternoon, I am guessing that I should wait until dinner to take the multi and other calcium-containing supplements?

Any advice is much appreciated! Thanks!
