HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
If the medication is discontinued and your thyroid hormone levels drop then you may become hypothyroid if they are too low.
This is associated with complications.
You can have your thyroid hormone levels checked to see if they are high. If the levels are high, your doctor would adjust the medication for you.
I hope this helps
