Comment:
When 1st starting the drug it was very hard to adjust to. I had major body & extremity pains, cotton mouth, thrash of the tongue, blurred vision, spinal pains, dry skin, rashes/dry patches, & not to mention the pains in my brain (not headaches or migrains) that never went away. After 4months or so most of the symptoms went away except the brain pains

Unable to find Levoxyl at any paharmacy! What is everyone doing now that this drug has been removed from the market? Generic is very different, had many negative side effects. Express Scripts says will be back 2014, doesn't help the patient that has been on this drug for years!!

I have had over and underactive thyroid disease off and on for 5 years. My dr would put me on meds until my thyroid range would go back the normal. The last flare up I had was in Dec.2012 my dr put me on Levoxyl tabs and my thyroid is back to normal. I am feeling so much better and have lost 15 pounds.
