What Are The Side Effects Of Levothyroxine?
I was prescribed levothyroxine 50mcg. Its probably been two years. Someone at my husbands place of business is now on it too. she gets blood tests. I feel terrible every day. I thought it was just me. A lot of my symptons are on the side effects page. I am rather concerned. Can i stop taking it?

Hello,
You may not be on the correct dosage. If the levothyroxine is the correct dose you should not be having side effects. If your thyroid is too low then you need this replacement but you need to have bloodwork done to see if the dose is correct.
