Can Vitamin Supplements Be Taken While On Armour Thyroid?

Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
There is really no wait with supplements except they contain soybean flour, cotton seed meal, walnuts, dietary fiber, calcium, and calcium fortified juices. These foods should be avoided within several hours of dosing if possible. To be on the safe side, take this drug on an empty stomach and only eat any other thing at least two hours later to be free of every possible concern.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
