Does anyone know what restrictions there are with regards to taking any vitamins or supplements whilst on Levothyroxine? I know that you should take Iron or Calcium at least 4 hours apart from Levothyroxine but are there any other considerations? I would like to know which supplements I could take at the same time or how long after swallowing Levithyroxine. I can’t be more specific with what vitamins or supplements in particular because I’m seeing a nutritionist at the end of this month & plan to follow their advice. They are not a thyroid specialist so I thought it would be prudent to get a bit more clued up in this area before following any recommendations.
Thanks for your help!

Levo should be taken 2 hours away from any supplements and other medication. Exceptions are iron, calcium, Vit D and magnesium and then it's 4 hours.
Also, iron needs to be taken 2 hours away from other supplements and medication as it affects their absorption.
