I just ran out of my thyroid medication and i need a couple doses before i can get any more. I found some levothyroxine SODIUM, but i take levothyroxine without the sodium. Wondering if its safe to take a couple with the sodium?
Whats the difference between levothyroxine and levothyroxine w/ sodium?
