Brief Answer:
Thyroid
Detailed Answer:
Lemon water is not acceptable to take with synthroid. Plain water is recommended.
Prevacid is best taken before breakfast.
So the ideal sequence would be :
Synthroid with water
60 minutes later: Prevacid followed by breakfast.
Other medications can also be taken around this time based on the prescribing doctors advice
