Can Cipralex Affect Thyroid Symptoms And Conditions?
I take a 100mcg synthroid as my Thyroid function is "Hypo". I stopped taking Cipralex two months ago, since then I have increasing Insomnia, breathlessness and concentration issues. Could the Cipralex have previously effected my Thyroid symptoms/condition? So that I now need less Levothyroxine?

hello!
hope you are doing good!
thanks for your question!
the symptoms you mention could be due to two reasons:
1)Either your thyroid levels are messed up and a follow up thyroid profile test will help In dealing with tht issue
2) Abrupt withdrawal of cipralex after taking it for many years can make you go through these symptoms.
I don't think your thyroid levels and cipralex hve some link.
hope this helps!
kind regards!
