Raspberry ketones and thyroxine

[bluenose01]

I take 125mg of thyroxine every day and would like to try the raspberry ketones. Is it ok to take the two together?

I haven't got a clue what raspberry ketones are but I do know that the only thing you should be taking within two hours of taking levo is a glass of water.

Taking anything, except water, with your levo can and does interefer with absorption.

What are raspberry Ketones and what do they do?

Its a natural remedy to help you loose weight. It was on dr oz. Its not a miracle tablet but its supposed to make you feel full. I thought about trying it.

Good for you, you'll have to let us know if it works but please dont take it anywhere near your levo - leave at last a two hours gap.

I didn't know I couldn't have anything but water for two hours. I've been taking thyroxine for 15 years.

I have never heard that you shouldn't have anything for 2 hours after taking thyroxine either. In fact I have just read the instructions on the Patient Information Leaflet Paragraph 3 "How to take Leothryroxine Tablets" and all it says is "YOU SHOULD SWALLOW THE TABLETS WITH A GLASS OF WATER PREFERABLY BEFORE BREAKFAST".

So bluenose01, did you ever take the Raspberry Ketone.  Did it work?
