Levothyroxine, the tablet that is easy to take wrongly

The patient in front of you has just been dispensed Levothyroxine. Counsel them in plain language; check their understanding before you finish. Their concerns are theirs to reveal, not yours to read.

So I take this with my morning vitamins and coffee, and I should feel like myself again by next week?

Tip: check understanding before you finish. Ask the patient to repeat the plan back.

Drug page: find Levothyroxine in the Drug Explorer to study its counselling points before or after a session.
