Is there any reason why I cannot have a Dioralyte type drink ? I’m on Levothyroxine 50. I drink a lot of water to keep UTI at bay. I haven’t seen any contra-indications listed anywhere.

I take Dioralyte or the Tesco equivalent quite often. I have never had a problem with it, but I have never taken it with Levothyroxine - I've always left a substantial gap between taking the two - say, 2 - 3 hours.
