I take Levothyroxine. 100 mcg daily. I take it on an empty stomach as soon as I get up in the morning. It's for hypothyroidism.

I really can't tell a difference when I take it. I've forgotten to take it several times and don't notice anything. If I just quit taking it I'm sure I'd eventually notice something. Luckily it's one of the generic meds that I can get a 3 month supply of for $10.
