Once One Starts Synthroid,does It Decrease The Function Of The Thyroid To The Degree It Will Never Function Properly Again?

First ... does this have a $$$ fee? 2 questions about Synthroid, if you would. 1) Once one starts Synthroid, does it decrease the function of the Thyroid to the degree that it will never function properly again? 2) Is there any negative interaction between Synthroid, Effexor, and Acyclovir? Thanks.

Hi,

No fees for you queries !

Ans:
1. Synthyroid wont make your thyroid non functioning. Most hypothyroid have to take the medications life long as their thyroid is damaged permanently and no longer produce thyroxine.

2. No negative interaction between these drugs

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
