Don't forget to take your thyroid medication at the same time every day on an empty stomach. Check your TSH every six to eight weeks, and work with your doctor to modify the dosage until it is under control. Consume a balanced diet, refrain from taking iron or calcium within four hours after taking the tablet, and report any side effects, such as palpitations, weight gain, or exhaustion.
