What Are Effects Of Taking Levothyroxine And Melatonin Together?
I take 75 mcg of levothyroxine. I have had a lot of hot flashes and read that melatonin can help you sleep and reduce hot flashes. I was wondering how the 2 drugs might interact? Will the melatonin negate or interfere with the effectiveness of the thyroid medicine?
