Daily intake of levothyroxine in the empty stomach without any fail is the most important way to keep TSH under desirable limit. Avoid tea, coffee snacks etc for at least 1 hour. Avoid drugs which can interfere with levothyroxine absorption. In spite of proper intake, if TSH remains high. Increase the dose of levothyroxine
