Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
These two drugs are safe to use. Several studies has shown that both the drugs are equally effective in an individual who is taking for two different ailments.
Thyroxine should not be stopped at any cost without the advise of your doctor.
As your doctor has advised 2 inhalation of symbicort means he has weigh the importance and advised you.
If you are having any problem like difficulty in breathing, vomiting,nausea and myalgia, consult your doctor for the opinion.
Thank you.
