Can Multaq, Metoprolol Tartrate And Eliquis Affect Thyroid Levels?
I d like to know if Multaq, metoprolol tartrate and Eliquis can affect thyroid levels. I m TSH levels are either too high or too low. I know this is affecting my paroxysmal atrial fibrillation problem. The doctor keeps adjusting my thyroid dose. I m frustrated. I know my aFib would be so much better if my thyroid would stabilize.

Hello,
Your routine drugs do not affect your thyroid status and you can safely continue them without any concerns. Make sure that your thyroid status is fine because hyperthyroidism can predispose to atrial fibrillation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
