Taking medicine for thyroid disease for the past 6 months and have skin discoloraion . is it discoloration cureable?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thyroid med: Skin discoloration is not a documented side effect of synthroid (thyroxine) - one of the most common thyroid medicines... At least from what i can tell. I'd ask your doctor about any other causes for the discoloration. Best of luck to you.
