Does magnesium lotion interfere with Levothyroxine?

Continuing my quest for health by improving my vitamin and mineral levels with the help of lovely HU forum people, I have bought magnesium lotion and was wondering when to use it. I have read that using magnesium at night can help with sleep which sounds fantastic BUT I take my Levo at night.

Does anyone know if the magnesium taken topically would interfere with Levo absorption?

No it wouldn't affect Levothyroxine

Only if you took supplements by mouth
