Actavis levothyroxine

Hi all, I haven't posted for a while, but have looked at the posts to see if I could help.My problem is, I have not been right on my levothyroxine since Actavis ceased their business.

I posted back in August about 100mcgm Accord/Actavis levothyroxine as I was feeling pretty awful. My Blood results showed that my T4 result was only 32% through range. Normally it would be around 65% through range. I also take 15mcgm Sigma Pharma liothyronine.

I’ve just been prescribed 25mgs levothyroxine to take alongside Efra thyroid. I’ve read on here that potentially hill crest is not a good option brand wise and I’ve only just started taking it today! What makes it less favourable?

Hi posted before currently on 75 mcg of levothyroxine I had a routine blood test 14th of January got a msg saying do a repeat one as one of my liver enzymes was slightly elevated they said nothing to worry about had another today and at teatime got a phone call from a Drs Assistant not a Dr and she said

Hello I have been taking 75mcg of Levo first thing in the morning for a couple of years. My naturopath has just suggested trying taking it at bedtime for a week to see if it helps my bloating. Trouble is I take magnesium at night to help me sleep. Do I really have to leave 4 hours between Levo and magnesium

Hi, After my thyroid blood tests results in Nov 2024, TSH: 0.01 mU/l (Range 0.27 - 4.2) -6.62% FT4: 22.3 pmol/l (Range 12 - 22) 103.00% FT3: 4.9 pmol/l (Range 3.1 - 6.8) 48.65% I decided even though I feel really ill, upping my dose from 125 to 150 was not a realistic thing to do. I saved my money

Just wondering if these are common if thyroid levels are low? I've had these since October and thought might be due to low B12 as I have other B12 deficiency symptoms, with 50% B12 reduction over 12 months.

Hi All, I have been on Levothyroxine for 15 years now and things have been pretty ok with a bit of a bump when I had a parathyroid problem.
