Hi. My daughter has been taking thyroxine since she was 15. Im assuming you are taking this for a thyroid condition. My daughter has missed tabs and not sufferedat all. Thyroxine are a hormone tab to balance this. Also may I ask why you are taking irodine. My daughters thyroid was over active rather than under active. She was only given irodine for a few days before surgery as her thyroid was extremely over active effecting her heart. so irodine given for surgery purposes.. following surgery she was given thyroxine as said to balane things out. She has been fine since and not on irodine.
