When (and how) to take your thyroid meds ?

After being diagnosed with Fibro also, on my second visit to Neuro , we were discussing my health issues in general and I asked him about taking all of my meds (Synthroid, Lyrica, Zocor, calcium and vitamin) at the same time first thing in the AM.

He said ""no,no,no...NEVER take your Synthroid at the same time as other meds because it tends to adhere itself to these meds instead of distributing throughout your bloodstream and going where it is needed"" ...

Has your Neuro or any dr. told you the same thing ?

There is nothing about this on the label of my prescription bottle nor in the brouchure included with my 'script.

Sooooo ... now I am taking it as soon as I get up in the AM and not taking the remainder of meds until mid-morning and late afternoon.

I DO intend to discuss this with my GP but next appt.is not until the end of August.

I would appreciate any input you have in this matter .

TIA

I would love to hear what anyone finds out.

So I would suggest that everyone should check with the parmacy and see what they say.,
