هل يمكنني تناول ليفوثيروكسين ومكملات الألياف معًا؟

لماذا يحدث هذا

Fibre acts like a sponge in your stomach and intestines. It can bind to the levothyroxine molecules, trapping them and carrying them out of your body before they have a chance to enter your bloodstream.

You do not need to stop taking fibre, but you must space them out. Take your levothyroxine on an empty stomach, at least 30 to 60 minutes before breakfast. Wait at least 4 hours after taking your levothyroxine before taking a fibre supplement (like psyllium husk, Fybogel, or methylcellulose).

Caffeine (Coffee)

Coffee can significantly reduce the absorption of levothyroxine. You should wait at least 30 to 60 minutes after taking your tablet before drinking coffee.

Dairy products (Calcium)

Calcium found in milk, cheese, and yoghurt can prevent levothyroxine from being absorbed properly. Leave a gap of at least 4 hours between taking your medicine and consuming large amounts of dairy.

Soya

Soya can interfere with how levothyroxine is absorbed. If you eat or drink a lot of soya (such as soya milk or tofu), you may need a dose adjustment. Consult your doctor if you change the amount of soya in your diet.

البابايا

There is some evidence that eating large amounts of papaya may decrease the effectiveness of levothyroxine.
