Exclamation LEVOTHYROXINE & Food???
I was looking on the hospital website that we have here & it said this:

Medium Interaction Potential

Drug-to-Food

LEVOTHYROXINE (LEVOTHYROXINE SODIUM) and FOOD (ENTERAL NUTRITION)
Taking levothyroxine with enteral nutrition may result in a lower amount of thyroid in your blood, which may indicate that levothyroxine is not working as well for you. Using levothyroxine with enteral nutrition may cause your medicine to not work for you. Using levothyroxine with enteral nutrition is not recommended. It is important to tell your doctor and pharmacist about all other medicines that you are using. If you are already using levothyroxine with enteral nutrition, call your doctor if you feel tired or sleepy, have a weight gain, have intolerance to cold temperatures, feel depressed, have a decreased ability to concentrate, or have constipation. Do not stop using your medicines without talking to your doctor first.

1.What ALL does everyone think about this???

Are you consuming food through a tube or stomach tube? Enternal nutrition refers to nutrition that is given through tube feedings. I highly doubt this applies to you.

I agree. It's no concern unless you have a feeding tube & your Dr would know that before you were put on it.
