Levothroxine Side Effects

Started this drug 2 weeks ago and I feel like I am falling apart. Was taking it with an iron supplement as prescribed by my doctor. For the past week I've had soreness in the lower left abdominal region and at times, I feel a bit woozy Like a shakey feeling. It almost feels like I'm outside my self and it is very hard to explain. My mouth is very dry and I've developed acne on my chin and side of my mouth. I'm on a very small dosage, .05. What's going on with me?

It can cause nervousness and palpitations, which could explain some of your symptoms, as well s the acne and dry mouth.

It is, however, important to speak to your doctor about it, to make sure it is the medication and not some other medical condition, but what you are describing is commonly experienced by people who use these types of medications.
