I have taken thyroid medicine for most of my life, but just recently I have noticed
that my Synthroid , 100 Mcg pill has a sugary, sweet taste to it. Why has this
occurred, and what exactly is the reason for it?

Hello, Einnor! How are you?

Some manufactured use sugars or a sweetener in some medications.

What are the markings on it? That would enable me to check the specific ingredients for you.

However, you also should not be tasting your pill. If you're tasting it, then you're not taking it properly. The pill should be placed as far back on your tongue, as possible, short of choking on it and then immediately swallowed with water.
