You may drink coffee in moderation without worrying. The latest scientific information shows that 1-2 cups of coffee a day are safe. I'd stay away from multiple super-venti-grand-giganto lattes with extra shots, though! The only problem with too much coffee would be that you'd be more jittery than normal because of the thyroid medication. Basically, you can tell if you've had enough coffee. When you start feeling jittery, it's time to stop and drink less next time.

∙ 13y agoI am a 65 year old female. Had my Thyroid totally removed at the age of 28. Mine was Hyper. Before it was removed I drank coffee heavily. After it was removed, I resumed my coffee intake along with my Synthroid Pill which I have to take the rest of my life. The caffeine didn't bother me years ago. But! Now if I drink coffee it makes me hyper and sick to my stomach. Even Tea that has Caffeine in it bothers me. Also, if White Sugar is used it adds to the nervous feeling after drinking. To stay on the UNshakey side I don't use White Sugar at all or drink coffee or tea with caffeine.

Most thyroid patients take their thyroid medication in the morning, and some take it before they go to bed.Prescribed thyroid medication will state on the bottle the proper way to take it. Typically it will say on the bottle to take one tablet in the morning, on an empty stomach, with plenty of water. It is important to take it with water, and on an empty stomach, because it will allow the thyroid medication to be absorbed into the bloodstream.
