A member asked:

Is it okay to drink coffee without waiting 30 minutes after taking synthroid (thyroxine)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Food and synthroid (thyroxine): Ideally you would wait about an hour, but if you consistently have the same cup of coffee every day at 30 minutes, your levels should stay stable.
