Levothyroxine interactions

Levothyroxine (Synthroid, Levoxyl, Unithroid), a thyroid hormone has 280 documented interactions across the FDA labels and fact sheets we index: 17 major, 222 moderate, 40 minor, and 1 where a label reports no significant interaction. Each entry below quotes the sentence behind it. This drug page is a starting point, not a verdict for your situation.

Levothyroxine is a man-made form of thyroxine (T4), the main hormone made by the thyroid gland. It is prescribed for hypothyroidism, a condition where the thyroid does not make enough hormone, and alongside surgery or radioactive iodine for some thyroid cancers. It is usually taken as one tablet a day on an empty stomach, 30 to 60 minutes before breakfast, with water. The dose is adjusted using blood tests, mainly TSH, and treatment is typically long term.
