A member asked:
I started taking 12.5 mcg of thyronorm .after 2 months i had dry eyes and yellow staining on teeth. please advice?

2 separate problems: 1. Eye dryness, redness and irritation are common side effect of the thyronorm medication and need to be addressed by your prescribing physician. Also ask to be tested for Sjogren's Syndrome which causes dry eyes including all mucous membranes? 2. Yellow staining on teeth need to be addressed by your dentist. Dental cleaning followed by the professional teeth whitening will solve this issue.

Thyronorm: I assume you had blood tests and a physical examination that mandated that you take this medication. If not, don't self medicate. If so, you need to be reevaluated for appropriate levels. Your medication may need to be adjusted. See your Physician or an Endocrinologist now. Please also see your Dentist who can help you return your teeth to a more cosmetically acceptable level.
