Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, you are right. Mucinex (N acetyl cysteine) can cause dizziness, nausea, vomiting etc.
You are also having ongoing stress and anxiety. So combination of both (mucinex and stress, anxiety) have caused more worsening of symptoms.
And no need to worry. You can take your 7 am dose of tirosint.
This won't interact with mucinex.
Usually mucinex take 12-15 hours to eliminate completely from the body.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm. Don't take mucinex further.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
