Best Answer

Prescribed thyroid medication will state on the bottle the proper way to take it, as directed by a doctor. Typically it will say to take one tablet in the morning, on an empty stomach, with plenty of water. It's important to take it with water, and on an empty stomach, because it will allow the thyroid medication to be absorbed into the bloodstream. It's best to wait at least 30 minutes before eating food. Make sure to read all of the directions on your thyroid prescription bottle. Doctors will note to not take antacids, calcium or iron within four hours of taking the medication.
