Yesterday I went back on to thyrax duotab. I've spent the last year trying to get used to this new medicine. Felt like a year-long overexploitation of my physical body. Switched straight back to Thyrax as soon as I realised that it was back on the market. Back to my old strength dose.

In November 2016 I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid. So I started on 12.5 mgr, 4 weeks later 25 mg, then later still 50 and 75 and 88 and now I'm on 100 mg.

I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. The doctor started me on a low dose, 12.5 mg to be precise. I am always conscious of what I eat, exercise a lot, etc. but I didn't lose any weight, I actually gained it! So now I hope that this might help me. Anyone else experienced this? And how long does it take for the medicine to start working? Thanks a mill, marlie
