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. It is best to wait at least 30 minutes before eating food. If you eat immediately after taking your thyroid medication,drink coffee, drink alcohol, or even add Metamusil to your water, this can affect the overall effectiveness of your thyroid medication. Doctors will note to not take antacids, calcium or iron within four hours of taking the medication.If you have any questions about when to take your thyroid medication consult your doctor.
If you take levothyroxine you are taking thyroid hormone. The primary reason for taking thyroid hormone is to supplement or replace that which your own thyroid makes. Low thyroid hormone is known as hypothyroidism. Some physicians also prescribe levothyroxine if you have antithyroid antibodies. This condition is known as Hashitmoto's thyroiditis. The intent is to suppress your own body's production of thyroid hormone because this minimizes the attack of the immune system against the thyroid.
