Hi,

Headache, insomnia, giddiness, nervousness, irritability, fever, hot flashes and flushes, perspiration, sweating, palpitation (pounding heartbeats or fluttering in chest), changes in menstrual cycles and appetite or weight changes are some common side effects of thyroid medicines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
