Oh this is a very normal thing Im a nurse and Im also on Eltroxin...dont forget Eltroxin has enough modified Iodine to make you thirsty crazy so its normal ,Megnasium will absolutely decrease while taking Eltroxin thats why your body might tell you to drink more water ,specifically 100mcg I ve been on many other doses but this one probably because if the Colour Ingrediant Talc make me so thirsty and make my eyes super dry ,yhe best way to fight with it its to drink enough Vitamin C included and Megnasium supplment my Endo Specialist helped me alot this is very common ad dont be afraid you r not alone ;)

I don't know where you are, but UK Eltroxin (from Mercury Pharma/Advanz) does not contain talc. Ingredients other than levothyroxine, are:

Sodium Citrate BP

Lactose BP

Maize starch BP

Powdered acacia BP

Magnesium Stearate BP

No UK levothyroxine products have any colouring agents in them.

Dry eyes (blepharitis) is usually treated with special drops, and can be a symptom of hpo or hyperthyroidism.

But talc isn't a colour ingredient, talcum powder is white! :-O
