Levothyroxine (25ug) for hypothyroidism

Since i started this medication my health has only gotten worse. All in all, i am pretty uncomfortable. Because of this, i have stopped taking this medication because it is only counterproductive towards my health. I'm going to try to use Tirosint instead, hopefully this will work better for me.

Levothyroxine (112ug) for hypothyroidism

20 years ago I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism, at first they thought I had a ms.

Levothyroxine (125ug) for hypothyroidism

The medicine works fine. The thyrax worked too, but i'm never going to take that again because i don't want to go back to the manufacturer that just let its patients sit for a year alone. That was too crazy for words.

Levothyroxine (75) for hypothyroidism

I started off taking natural thyroid hormones until that was no longer permitted. Absolutely no problems at 200 ug. Then I switched over to Thyrax 200 ug, had muscle pains the whole time (30 years) and slowly started gaining weight (not through over-eating) and had fluid retention. Started on Tirosint in February. No more muscle pain, my legs are their normal size again and I've lost 7 kg. Alre...

Levothyroxine (100ug) for hypothyroidism

I declared an autoimmune thyroid during the summer of 2016 which was diagnosed in October 2016. I was immediately put under Lévothyrox 50 then under Lévothyrox 75 in January 2017 and under Lévothyrox 100 in March 2017. That's when the many side effects appeared. Not being stabilized at that time my doctor put these side effects under the stroke of hormonal imbalance. But since my TSH rate is ba...

Levothyroxine (100ug) for hypothyroidism

I've been on treatment for 20 years, I was fairly quickly stabilized, with a few variations over these 20 years. I never had to complain about this treatment. Since June, I have had twice periods of intense dizziness, nausea, then strong head pain with blurred vision and finally difficulty breathing to have to take ventolin. Feeling weakened is obviously about morale, and it is quite obvious th...

I went down to 150 ug in May; The palpitations have disappeared b...
