Further evaluation: Thyroid is one of the factors that can affect mood and weight. Before taking eltroxin, it is recommended to get labs done to evaluate the functioning of the thyroid. If low eltroxin can be used at an appropriate dose. Taking eltroxin when not needed can cause undesired side effects including abnormal heart rhythms. Please get evaluated by a doctor as other disorders can affect weight and mood too.

Need health history: Eltroxin for bipolar depression is typically reserved as a last option if patients don’t respond to the usual treatment options. Studies show Eltroxin may stabilize mood and reduce feelings of depression. Although Eltroxin is generally safe, it may not be appropriate depending on the rest of your health history, and whether you should take it requires assessment by your doctor.
