"Two years ago, my pharmacy switched over to this and told me it was Levothyroxine, just under a different brand name. Me or my doctor did not put the two together. I gained 30 lbs, and I now have chronic fatigue and pain, slow heart rate. I stopped running because the fatigue was so horrible I could barely function going to work on a daily basis. My quality of life was failing, and I felt like no one was listening to me. When I switched pharmacies, I was getting Levothyroxine again, and in two weeks, I noticed more energy. By week three, I was running again and actually able to clean my house, run three miles, and make dinner and have guests over, all in the same day! This drug was ruining my life. I can't get back the last two years, but this drug needs to be removed from the market. The sad part, my TSH was normal, so my complaints were ignored."

"Like many of you, I changed to Walmart pharmacy, and my levothyroxine was replaced with Euthyrox. Within a few weeks, I started noticing symptoms: tired, achy, blurry vision. I finally thought maybe it had to do with the Euthyrox since it reminded me of how I felt before I was diagnosed. Thank goodness I found this page. Thank you for commenting, it's like I wrote it myself. In the trash they go! I'm going back to Walgreens!"

"Has been a horrible experience. Muscle weakness, dizziness, fast heart rate, and no appetite. I think it should be withdrawn. It made it worse."

"I had it after taking generic levothyroxine from Walmart. This time I got the Euthyrox, and I have been experiencing brain fog, extreme pain in my feet since morning, and fatigue."

"I have Hashimoto's for over 20 years. I was taking thyrohormone 0.1 for all my life, and my condition was always under control. My last doctor prescribed me Euthyrox 88, and after 6 months, my TSH was 9.5. He told me to increase the dose, and after 6 more months on Euthyrox 125, my TSH has increased more. Now my TSH is 10.56, and my thyroid gland is in an awful condition. This drug is a nightmare. Stay away."
