Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I take Synthroid every morning, and about 2 hours after taking it I get an extremely dry mouth and no amount of water will take away the dry mouth feeling. It s awful. Why does this happen? When I tried switching my synthroid to bedtime, i didn t get the dry mouth during the day, but I got very itchy skin all day instead. Please advise.
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
Take synthroid with meals and you will never feel the symptoms you are feeling now.
Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.
Have a wonderful time ahead.
Best Regards!
DR. MUHAMMAD M. HANIF
