User Reviews for Synthroid oral

my sister ask me to look this up as she thinks she needs to get off it and how to do so

I have Celiac Disease as well as Hashimoto's thyroiditis do not take this medicine if you have gluten, corn or dye allergies. Use Armour Thyroid that is compounded for you.

I had hooped to get more energy and lose weight

I have been on this medication for 2 months and feel like a brand new person. I have "tons" of energy now, no more afternoon napping, I am able to function and concentrate for long periods of time whereas before I had trouble doing either for more than half an hour or so at a time. I feel like I am alive again and I am once again enjoying my family, friends and life in general. I have no signs of adverse side effects. Should my Doc decide to take me off this med he would have a "fight" on his hands. I wish I had gone on it lots sooner.Read More Read Less

I forget to take it on an empty stomach.

I have had thyroid cancer! Treatment etc...and is on the Synthroid medication now! Been an adjustment to my lifestyle overall! I am having some problems with the absorbation of the medication!! Consideriing there are millions of people on this medication, I hope one DAY there will be a shot or something to take instead...This medication is too important, NOT too advance for the greater good off Mankind!!!!

what i need to know does it give you dry mouth

weight gain

Once a month I have a reaction to Synthroid, which I believe is called flushing. This past month it was quite severe - heat wave episodes through my body occurring quite frequently for a total of 24 hours. My last TSH was 4.4

Have been taking for years. Have not noticed any effect on energy or with weight.

am having shaking i taking gabapentin syntroid metropol amptryplin tramodol

I tried the generics and they did not work nearly as well for me. I go into a mental/physical slump without Synthroid.

I've been taking synthroid since 2000. Not a very high dose but was increased this last checkup. I ran out and just never went to have them refilled and I feel fine. I've been off for 3 weeks now and I feel I've lost weight and become regular again. Maybe I've been on them too long? My only concern is depression as I am on zoloft also. I'm not tired or have any other symptons. Has anyone got off of this medication before?

just started

Had a CBC. I went from 152.55 TSH to .51 in 1 month being on 150mcg. I had bad achy muscles for a month or so and has subsided but now have terrible itching of my body, the arms are the worst. Told my Dr but he won't lower the meds. Did I drop too much too fast? I have been on Synthroid for over 3 months now. It has helped my fatigue and energy level, have lost some weight. I feel if the med was lowered a bit I would not itch so bad.
