Synthroid & Ampicillin

Hi,

I take Synthroid first thing in the morning. I know have a round of antibiotics (Ampicillin) that I am supposed to take twice a day on an empty stomach as well. Can I take both of these meds at the same time in the morning?

Thanks!

No. You'll still want to wait the alloted time between taking Synthroid and taking another pill. I had a sinus infection since being on a thyroid med and woke myself up earlier to take it, then went back to sleep. When I rewoke I'd figure what would be four hours (the recommended time told to me) and take the antibiotic then.

Good luck. Hope the antibiotic is for nothing too serious and that you're feeling better soon.
