Should not be taken with other medications
Levothyroxine should not be taken with other medications. Other medications can stop levothyroxine from working. It is recommended to separate the administration of these medicines from levothyroxine by 4 hours. Taking other medications with levothyroxine may lead to being "under-replaced" or "over-replaced". Certain other medicines may also increase or decrease the effects of levothyroxine. It is best to take levothyroxine alone, on an empty stomach, and with a full glass of water for best absorption.

+4 Just in case, I would match your Levothyroxine with other meds you take just to be sure.

Thank you. That is what I do. I do not take any other meds, vitamins or supplements until 4 hours after taking Levothyroxine.
