If you take it at night....it has to be on an empty stomach...

HOURS after eating.

Almost all thyroid should be in the morning on an empty stomach,
and no food or calcium containing liquids for a hour!

Any food present and the thyroid will not be absorbed.

It is very strange to start someone on 100mcg a day.

Typically it is 25mcg for 2-3 months, then 50mcg for 2 months then retest. Is your doctor OLD...not up to date?
