Drug Allergy Skin Rash (Page 3)

I have been suffering from a drug allergy reaction for 5 months. This has been confirmed by skin biopsies. I have discontinued all my meds except Synthroid and I am still breaking out with skin rashes. I was switched to the dye free .5 tablet - I take 2 1/2 tablets . I want to discontinue the Synthroid for a few months to test if I am allergic to it. My doctor says no, do not discontinue and he will not switch me to a natural thyroid hormone. He does not want to believe that I can be allergic to this med. I called several other doctors and they said they do not prescribe natural thyroid hormone. What can I do? I need to know if I am allergic to this. Can I stop it for a while? What else can I take that is not Levothyroxine? Please help.

I took Tirosint for 3 months
Felt wonderful first 2 months then 3rd month had terrible vertigo for 1 hr every morning. Searched online as this side effect wasn't listed . But 82% of women over 60 got Vertigo as a side effect.

See if your pharmacist will give you another "brand " of the same medication.
I am having a similar problem.
I think it is one of the ingredients.

Aemour brand is made dirextly from bovines but the dosage is inconsistent because of the source of the peoduct natural. I have used synthorid over levothyroxine for30 years- byt the Mylon brasnd Levothyroxine is recc.by my new doctor as free from lactose.
