Coffee and synthroid

[brufer]

Has anyone had as hard a time with coffee and synthroid. I am on 112 mg and get hyperactive and dry mouth with coffee.

Thanks guys. I don't feel so alone out there with this.

Same thing is happening to me.   I'm down to 1/2 mug in the AM and it still makes me very hyper for a few hours.  My Dr said that some people develop sensitivity to caffeine when they are taking synthroid.

Coffee is a stimulant so it is likely it will make you more hyperactive. I used to drink a lot of coffee and had fast heart rate, and a very dry mouth. Only now when I drink say a Diet Coke, and I am now on thyroid meds does it make me go hyper-hyper...but I think it is to do with the fact I do not drink it regularly enough, so my body is more sensitive to it now I am on the medication.
That's just my experience!
