Thyroxine and prednisolone

[Hidden]

I'm steroid dependent (Hydrocortisone) & on Levothyroxine, I don't seem to have any issues being on both.

Thank you, i was a little worried

[diogenes Remembering]

Dexamethasone doses as low as 0.5 mg can lower serum TSH levels, while 30 mg of prednisone is likely required to significantly alter TSH levels. In two-thirds of patients, the drug increases T3 binding to red blood cells. This doesn't affect the availability of T3 to the tissues.

Thank you the information

I’m steroid dependant (hydrocortisone) and T3 only.
