Dunno, not a doctor, but there is a lot of info available about how calcium, iron, aluminum (indigestion tabs) and several other substances may interfere with thyroxine.

There is also material on the net about the interactions with which grapefruit may be connected.

Yes, you can take grapefruit with synthroid. However, do check with your pharmacist if you start any new medications because grapefruit can interact with other medications, such as statins.
