Suggest The Dosage Of Levothyroxine To Get Energy

I am flying to France on Friday and will be there for 9 days. We will be hiking and biking and hiking and biking. I need my energy! I presently take my levothyroxine at bedtime. What should I do when I go to France. I thought if I just take it at 5am that should do it. My dosage is 88mcg????

Hello,

You may take Levothyroxine at bedtime when you go to France as well. This will help you to remember to take it. There will be no major changes if you do so, and it is completely safe, as long as you remember to take it.

If you think you will be able to remember to take it if you take it around 5 am, then you may do so as well but this is really uncovenient and increases the risk that you will forget to take the pill.


I hope this answers your query.
I remain at your disposal for further medical assistance.
