Can a combination of these medications cause dizziness?

I take 50 mcg of Levothyroxine once a day. I have been taking this for about 9 years.
I started taking Pregnenolone 200 mg, once a day, in gum form, about 10 days ago.
I also use an inhaler -  Asmanex 220 mcg, once to twice a day.  

Lately I have become very dizzy like I was drunk.
Could the combination of these two medications be causing it?

Hi

Here's the link to our Drug Interaction tool .. you can also ask a pharmacist on our expert forum or call your doc or pharmacist who prescribed. They'd be glad to help you, but this tool may help in the meantime!  It's on the right hand side towards the bottom

being hypothyroid can cause vertigo. It may not be connected with the meds.

Its common with having the disease in may patients whether optimal in their thyroid levels or not balanced quite yet too.

Hi,

You could try this question on the forum 'ask the pharmacist".

You could also try googling side effects.

Side effect from the levothyroxine does not include dizziness.  I think same goes for the inhaler (which has very specific targeted action.  i don't know about the pregnenolone.

First thing to rule our for dizziness is ear infection.  This can be painless if it is middle ear.  So I reckon go see a doctor, tell them your syptoms and see if they can advise.

Best regards
