Hello,
In hashimoto thyroiditis, hypothyroidism usually occurs. For that, you can take levothyroxine drug which you are taking.
According to TSH level, dose of levothyroxine adjusted. Aim is maintain TSH level between 2 to 4. No need to any other drugs. Consult endocrinologist if needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
