Hi All,

I have hashmitos and I have been taking my synthroid at night for years. Does anyone else take their medicine at night or would it be better to take it in the morning?

Thanks
Jodi

I get up in the morning about 5 and take my thyroid meds. I wait a few hours and then I eat. I take my vitamins and calcium at night before bed.

I think whatever works for you. I know that it is just important to do the same thing all the time and to take it on an empty stomach and not take calcium with it as it binds to the thyroid med.

I take mine 1st thing in the morning and wait at least an hour before eating. I read something that said morning is the best time to take it. If you take it at night, are you taking it at least 2-3 hours after eating? I also read that whenever you plan to take it be consistent. If you take it at night and your TSH is in the range that it needs to be then you can continue to take it at night.

I believe it is better to take in the morning on an empty stomach. I did take it at night for a while while I was pg and couldnt keep it down in the morning, and it was ok. Being consistent is important.
