Dr. Carrie Cannon answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

Levothyroxine use: Only for proven hypothyroidism. Please consult with your physician if concerned. The levothyroxine could make anxiety worse, cause symptoms of rapid heart rate, increased blood pressure, and be harmful in other ways, if not needed. A blood test should be done to check thyroid function.
