I have been taking zen retard 300 mg twice a day from last 10 years. My hands have been trembling from last few years. But from last few months it has increased a lot. I am worried. I don't have thyroid. Please tell me is it a side effect of zen retard or it's something else. ## I have been taking zen retard 300 for 10 years (twice daily). And now I became diabetic over the past 3 years and am taking insulin. Is it safe for me to be taking both? Please tell me.

I have been on thyroxine 100 for 22 years but was changed to 75 4 days ago and I feel very agitated could this be withdrawel symptons ## Hello, Trotter! How are you? Oh yes, if you were taking that dose for that many years and it's suddenly lowered, it is completely normal to experience some withdrawal effects, while your body adjusts. As reported by the FDA, you may also experience nausea, headache, dizziness, chills and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with?

Have been searching online but cannot find the identify of the above pill: blue scored oblong caplet-type pill with T4 on one side and either 9|0 or 0|6 on the reverse. ## Hi Maryel, Based on your description, I'm wondering if there's any chance that this pill might resemble a Levothroid tablet manufactured by Forest Labs Inc? One of the Levothroid tablets I'm thinking of is a white oblong/capsule shaped pill with T | 4 on one side (split by score line) and the number 50 on the other. It's about 10mm in size and appears to be available in different colors depending on the dosage. You can also pull up a few images on the internet to get a better visual... but please post back if that sounds like a possibility. Hope this helps! ## Thanks, David. I think I have it narrowed ...

My opened bottle of Armour Thyroid spilled in to my damp sink. I quickly put them on a soft clean cloth to dry. Have they lost their potency? Some pills were pretty wet. ## Hello, Faye! How are you? Some of them have probably lost some potency, but there's no way to be sure how much. It would likely be best to speak to your doctor and obtain a new supply. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, hair loss and weight changes. Is there anything else I can help with?

I am a 26 year old married woman and my weight is 77kg. The TSH levels in my blood is 100 MCIU/ML. The doctor has prescribed Thyronorm (100mcg; after breakfast) and Deavit-Forte capsules (after dinner). I have been taking the above said medicines since 3 weeks now. Of late, I have started feeling very hungry even after having my meals. Please let me if this is normal or a side effect. What are the other side effects of Thyronorm? Please suggest a good diet plan too. ## Daisy start with yoga and walking too. I have started with homeo. Many of my relatives had thyroid and took homeo. Now they have totally stopped taking any medicines. But they do check their thyroid monthly.

small white pill with FW41 (FW then the numbers 41 underneath) on one side and just a vertical line on other, disc shaped / slightly flat and circular, approx 4mm - 5mm across in diameter ## Small white pill with FW41 (FW then the numbers 41 underneath) on the other side just line across (|) circular. Also small white pill with TC on one side C on the other ## The tablet with the FW 41 marking is listed as containing 25mcgs of Levothyroxine, which is used to treat thyroid disorders. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, hair loss and weight changes. I'm sorry, but I've been unable to find anything on the TC C pill. Does anyone else know what it contains?

Swollen nodes under ears and chin on cytomile (on 75 split three times a day). I started at 25. It has been 9 weeks now. Worried about swelling. ## I'm not seeing this listed among the side effects that are reported by the U.S. FDA. Typically, they include nausea, dizziness, confusion, appetite changes and extreme fatigue. Have you been ill recently? Are you on any other medications? Have you had this checked out by a medical professional?

May I order tramadol? I used to be prescribed hydrocodone dilautid tramadol soma. I do not want to be on hard core drugs. Tramadol works soma. Was the best for my spasms but I am open to anything. I have fibromyalgia scoliosis cervical neck spurs and osteoarthritis my right foot had a mid fusion July 9 2015. I'm still recovering I think subtalular fusion is next. My left foot is worse. Now my knees are swelling. I have lost my strength. My tmj is horrific. I am not able to open my mouth except one finger. One half inch. Tooth brushing and Floss very difficult. Please help I am a veteran. The Dr told me I will not prescribe you hydrocodone until you stop taking adderall. If I don't have it. I can't get out of bed.

Was taking the eltroxin , and because of palpitations ,the doctor change me to euthyrox I have 12 days taking them but still have palpitations every night and sometimes through the day , I need help please ## Hello, Bale! How are you? If you experienced such a side effect with one, it makes sense that you'd also experience it with the new one, since they both contain the same active ingredient, which is Levothyroxine. Other typical side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly including headache, hair loss and weight changes. However, unless there is some other problem going on, such as a heart issue, palpitations aren't usually anything to worry about. It is actually you just becoming aware of your heartbeat, when you usually aren't. In most cases, they are benign and th...

Hi - I have thyroid issues, and within the last three years my thyroid has became very active. I was told I had hyper when I was 15 and now I will be turning 22 this December. But just in last three years I have noticed that my teeth have become really bad. Decaying of my molars, sensitive to hot and cold, and jaw pain. My wisdom teeth are growing in but my dentist in Burlington (Pearl Dental) says that my wisdom teeth will not affect any other tooth unless it scrapes the others. My gums were also tender and swollen for about a week. I was wondering if having a really overactive thyroid would cause these problems? I should also tell you that my doctor is very worried that I could have a heart attack at any moment. I am dizzy, can not sleep, always hungry, losing weight fast, some days m...

Has anyone had a problem with a zolpiden prescription having a few pills that(I think are thyroid) in it.? It seems strange that I got them from several pharmacy's.I now bite the end off and if I have no bad affects,take the pill.Will now look for a different mfg.I have seen other complaints but no place for a reply ## Hello, Irma! How are you? Which mediation are you supposed to be receiving? What are the markings on the tablets? That is what would enable me to check what they are for you. It is always possible to receive a mix of different pills on one bottle, because generics are manufactured by several companies and, if the pharmacy runs out, they may fill the rest of your prescription with ones made by another company. The FDA lists the typical side effects of Zolpidem as possi...

To all of you: Besides myself , my mother-law and three friends have Hypothyroidism. My mother n law was so over active, she had it remove. She is on "The MAX." dose of this medicine AND "JUST FINE!" (Never sick) In total myself, her and 3 other people take Lev! NONE OF US have any of the above happen. However, Before I found out, I was hypo, there was the main issues 1) Depressed, 2) Anxiety Attacks, 3) Constipation, 4) No energy. Plus, I "Always needed a nap daily, after work." 5) My hands and feet were always cold and 6) FELT DETACTHED like DP OR DR , more D.R. (Derealization) Lastly I was losing hair, more than normal. A doctor did a T3&T4 (just to make sure it wasn't my thyroid being so low) and it was! I started medicine in 2003, and I stopped Spring 2

It can take a week or so, before you start to feel the effects of your dose being lowered, so that can be normal. As listed by the FDA, you may also experience nausea, dizziness and headache. Is there anything else I can help with? ## It was nice of you to reply. All anxious and restless gone just be glad when body quivers, and nervousness which only happens few times.

Where can I go to get an annual exam for levothyroxine ## Hi you can go to your primary care Dr for this test and ask him to check your thyroid you could have under active thyroid or over active thyroid you would know by a simple blood test.good luck! ## If you'd like to get thyroxine testing done you can google HealthCheckUSA. They partner with labs around the country to do thyroid and other lab tests without a doctor's order. These are accredited labs - the one near me is in the building next to the local hospital. I don't know if insurance covers tests done this way- I just paid for my mom's when she was here because I was worried and didn't want to wait for anything. After getting a blood draw, you can just go to the HealthCheckUSA website, type in your login inf...

If my readings 0.586 how long will it take to get to 1-2 ## Hello, Connie! How are you? There is no definitive answer that I can give you, it depends on your body, how it responds to the medication and what dosage you've been prescribed. Usually, it takes a month or more, which is they TSH levels are usually only checked ever 3 months. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, weight changes and hair loss. Is there anything else I can help with?
