A member asked:

I'm taking 25mg of synthroid. i take it at night around 10pm every night. i would like to start taking whey protein to build muscle. would it interfere with my thyroid medicine if i take it at night and take the whey protein in the morning around 7am?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Build muscle: That should not be a problem. It is smart to take your thyroid med at bedtime.
