Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

All thyroid medications are not bio-equivalent, so with thyroid disorders it is important you have your thyroid checked.
The medications should be decided by your doctor based on the examinations.

Hope I have answered your query.
