Brief Answer:
yes

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

welcome to the 'Ask a Doctor' service. I've gone through your query and I want to reassure you that these drugs can be used together as there are not many interactions between them. One little exception might be the interaction between levothyroxine and theophylline. Levothyroxine may accelerate the metabolism of theophylline and reduce its effect. Therefore monitoring of the levels of theophylline in the blood and the patient's response to it are important when adding levothyroxine to the regimen.

I hope I've answered your query. Please let me know if you need further assistance.

Kind Regards!
