Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What do I do when all the different drugs for hypothyroidism make me sick with stomach aches, my stomach becomes hard and I have diarrhea. I get some relief when the drug has worn off. I take my pill on an empty stomach in the middle of the night. Many years ago I had dermatomyositis . It took years to recover.
It is my pleasure to answer your query here. The hypothyroid medicine has to be consumed on empty stomach in the morning to avoid such instances of diarrhea. Later on if problem persists, consult your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
