Following my 1st dosages of Eltroxin, my blood tests came back as my still having a very low thyroid. I've been taking it again for 5 weeks and am experiencing very uncomfortable and unusual tremors which last for a few seconds. I am not epileptic so, obviously, I'd like some feedback on this. What's causing these tremors???? Anyone???

I started Eltroxin/Levothyroxin a month ago. I was warned about side effects to my eyes which started watering and stinging then my nose started to drip. Suddenly I crashed into depression and am having trouble stabilizing this so everyday I feel unwell. I am also having hot flushing at 68years of age! I haven't the energy to do much.

Have found that the brand Goldshield made in Britian has few side effects so will be paying for these rather than be miserable all the time

I have been on Eltroxin 50ug for 2 years - now increased to 100ug and I have noticed severe hair loss. Is this a result of increased dosage?

I am 43 and have been taking eltroxin for a couple of years now and apart from feeling the cold more than anyone else and the odd fatigue I have felt fine. I recently hurt my back and asked for a bone density scan. The results were that I had the beginning of osteoporosis After a little research I found that Eltroxin can effect bone density, so now am looking for a natural substance to treat my hashimotos disease.

I use eltroxin 0.1mg every day for two years now and could not understand why I am always tired although I had a good night's sleep. I also became aware that I am very tempered, depressed and can do impulsive things. like buying a bike as example. Recently, almost a month ago I had to visit my GP for a common flu. I also asked him to run a blood test on my thyroid hormones. It became apparent that I have been taking 0.05mg less than what I should have.
Could all my negative experience be because of this? I only started to take the higher doses since today, I am hoping on a better outcome.

My wife taking Eltroxin 50 mg at every morning with empty stomach since two month back, as her TSH found higher (7.5 unit instead of 0.5 to 5.5). Recently it has been observed that, she is loosing hair too much. I just want to know, whether this increased rate of hare fall is the side effect of Eltroxin or the effect of high TSH? If the reason is first one then how the preventive step is to be taken? And if it is due to later, then why the medicine not doing the work properly? Please suggest the way to proceed.

I've just started using Eltroxin 2 weeks ago I haven't experienced any side effect yet but I'm interested in knowing what, if any, long term side effects are.
