Hello,
Welcome to HCM
Thanks for posting your query in HCM.I understand your concern.Evion LC consists of Levocarnitine as the active ingredient.It is mainly used for treating low levels of levocarnitine in the body and treating patients with metabolism problems that may cause low levels of levocarnitine.
As you are having thyroid metabolic problem,your doctor would have prescribed this.
It should be taken with caution if your wife is pregnant,or planning to get pregnant.Also if you have allergies to above ,be careful.
Possible side effects of this drug are:
1.bad taste in mouth,
2.diarrhea
3.nausea;vomiting
4.stomach cramps; unpleasant body odor;
It may also cause severe allergic reactions in the form of rash; hives; difficulty breathing; tightness in the chest in some cases.
Hope you are happy with the answer.
Thank you
