I am taking one 100 mg Stabilized R-Lipoic Acid capsule daily. I also take a synthroid tablet every a.m. Have not had any problem with the reading of my throid blood test I get every 4 -5 months. All is in the normal range.

Did find out the generic for Synthroid is not advisable. Tho ingredients are the same, the amounts are not. My Endocrinoligist originally had prescribed the Levthyroxine. Eventually, he felt this would need to be increased since blood work indicated a problem. I informed my doctor about what I had read and asked him to prescribed the Synthroid (Brand Only) for a few months. He agreed and we did another blood test after three months. This was about 4 years ago. I did not need to increase and am on the same doseage. I will use only Synthroid...No Substitution.
