A member asked:

Im on generic levothyroxine but was thinking of switching to brand. is brand that much preferable to generic? my tsh normalized well on the generic.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stay generic: If your TSH level is normal on a generic medication, there is no need to pay more for a brand name. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
