"2 years ago my pharmacy switched over to this and told me it was Levothyroxine just under a different brand name. Me or my Dr did not put the 2 together. I gained 30lbs 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 2 weeks I noticed more energy, by week 3 I was running again, and actually able to clean my house, run 3 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 2 years, but this drug needs to be removed from the market. 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 ask for commenting, it's like I wrote it myself. In the trash they go! I'm going back to Walgreens!"

"Euthyrox keeps my TSH and weight in check and my hair doesn't fall out on it like when I was on Synthroid and Unithyroid."

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 I think it should be withdrawn.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

"Since taking Euthyrox for over a year I feel great. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos and have included daily exercise and strict, healthy diet, which also helps anyone who has autoimmune."

"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."
