A member asked:

Is it okay to take probiotics close to synthroid (thyroxine)? i know that vitamins & minerals are a no-no, but not sure about the probiotics.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

OK for probiotics: Yes, this should not be a problem at all. I like to get my probiotics from food -the natural way, rather than in a capsule or other 'artificial' form. Some foods that contain natural probiotics include yogurt (in all it's forms), sour cream, sauer kraut and kimchi.
