Hello, Prajkta! How are you? Congratulations on the baby!

Yes, it is, you must only take it on an empty stomach and wait awhile, before eating or drinking anything else. If you eat with it, it reduces the efficacy of the medication, so it will not work for you, as it should.

The U.S. FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, hair loss and weight changes.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Hello! I am using thyronorm 12.5mcg. I am 12 weeks pregnant, suffering from morning sickness, and am feeling hungry in the morning. After I'm done vomiting I am not able to wait for 1hr to have my breakfast after taking the medication. Please suggest me any solution for this.

I am working night shifts from 7pm to 5am in the morning. I have been prescribed thyronorm 50mcg. When should I take the tablet? And what does it mean by "empty stomach"? How long should I not eat anything, to consider my stomach being empty?
