Can Eltroxin Cause Any Side Effect Like Skin Patches?
Hi there, I ve had an under active thyroid for over 5 years now. My medication has always been adjusted up and down but generally no problems. I stopped taking it for a few months but am back on it now and have developed patches on my skin...it s like part of my skin is light in places than others. Is this a result of not taking the eltroxin or something unrelated? Any advice would be greatly appreciated :)

Can Eltroxin Cause Any Side Effect Like Skin Patches?
Hi, It has no relation to stopping or restarting Eltroxin. Eltroxin is just thyroid extract. Go for serial TSH and continue it. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. AJEET SINGH, General & Family Physician
