My levothyroxine side effects
I have been on my Levothyroxine for 3 weeks.
The first week, I felt a bit crazy, jittery when I tried to lay down to sleep and so on.
Now I am very tired, I wasn't even tired before I knew I had a thyroid issue and was put on the stuff. I just don't understand why I feel worse taking something rather than feel better than what I thought of as I was feeling just fine before.
And I have a strange lingering after taste in my mouth all day?

The pharmacy recently gave me levothyroxine generic instead of my usual brand name levoxyl. The medecine gave me the following symptoms: acne, some constipation, anxiety and depression, constant headaches, a pink swollen nose, a puffy face, sleep disturbance ( was waking up about after about 3-4 hours of sleeping and could not fall back asleep).
I was on levothyroxine for about a month and a half. I didn't make the connnection at first, I did some research and understood that it was the genereic brand causing all these symptoms. I stopped the medication, asked the doc for a levoxyl prescription. the symptoms are slowly disappearing. (i've been back on levoxyl for three days)

Mods only close threads on which there are "issues", such as arguments, etc. These old threads are found through googling; unfortunately, people don't look to see how old they are and find our home page to post new threads..... they just post, then of course, we post on them, so that's what keeps them alive. In order for them to "die", everyone would have to stop posting on them.
