My 66 year old mother went for a knee replacement operation and ended up in icu. She suffered Pulmonary embolism and has moisture on her lungs. She takes eltroxin and premex plus 4mg. The doctor changed her eltroxin to .5mg and changed her blood pressure medication to concor. She now slurs and gets very hypertensive. Is concor a better blood pressure tablet and is it good to change her dossage of eltroxin from 1.mg and 1.5mg every second day to .5mg daily? ## Good morning in September last year my GP put me on to premex (lowest dosage). Since then I have gained 9kgs, no change to my eating or drinking habits, could it be caused by the tablet.

Can Eltroxin be used to treat goiters? ## Eltroxin contains the active ingredient Levothyroxine, which is used to treat hypothyroidism, when the Thyroid gland isn't producing enough of the essential hormone. The swelling of the thyroid gland that can occur is what is commonly referred to as a goiter. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, headache and weight gain. ## I believe it's taken for thyroid problems.

I am a 49 old woman and for the last 15 years I have been taking Eltroxin for my hypothyroidism. My lipid profile report shows higher triglycerides, high total cholesterol, and high ldl. Thus the doctor has advised me to take Fibator to lower my Triglycerides. After using it I am experiencing heavy hair loss. Please advise me. ## Have you consulted your doctor, again? Fibator contains the active ingredients Atorvastatin and Fenofibrate and the Atorvastatin is known to cause some problematic side effects, in some people and yes, hair loss can be one of them.

How are you? I'm sorry about the problems you're having. Those can be normal side effects of both of these medications.

It isn't noted as being dangerous to take them, together, but side effects can happen with any medication. Is your doctor aware that you are taking both?

I am using 20 mg Lexamil in the morning I also is om Eltroxin and Estropause 2 mg I got sideaffects such as naussea running stomach sweat a lot headaches cold and hot flushes shivering Please help I sometimes cannot get out of bed. ## I'm sorry to hear about what you're going through there with all those side effects. If I may suggest anything that could be of help, it would be that you consider looking into alternative or natural medicine to treat whatever it is you're taking those prescriptions for. As far as taking Lexamil (Escitalopram) goes, in my honest opinion, your best bet it usually to see a psychiatrist, rather than a regular medical doctor. They are better trained in the types of medications that handle these problems and can also help you treat the underlying ca...

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...
