A member asked:

What are the side effects of levoxyl (thyroxine) hormone?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

None: If the dose is appropriate, there should be no side effects of thyroid hormone replacement. The body does not differentiate a normal amount of thyroid hormone coming from your thyroid gland or from a pill.
