For Hyperthyroidism "I’m taking this medication because I developed Graves’ disease. It is making me feel pretty crappy. The biggest issues are the extreme weight gain and the terrible chapped lips. I cannot get my lips to feel better no matter what I use or how much water I drink. I have been on the medication for 6 months. TSH is still lower than 0.05, but T3 and T4 are in the normal range now. I was taking 10 mg/day. Now taking 15 mg/day."
