Hi,

It is not recommended to take Oxy Elite Pro with Synthroid or any other thyroid medication without consulting with a doctor first. Oxy Elite Pro is a dietary supplement that contains caffeine, which can have a stimulant effect and increase heart rate and blood pressure. Combining it with thyroid medication could have unpredictable effects and may not be safe for everyone.

In addition, it's important to note that weight loss is not solely about calorie intake and exercise. Hormonal imbalances, medication side effects, and other health conditions can affect weight loss efforts. It's important to speak with a doctor or a registered dietitian to develop a personalized plan for safe and effective weight loss, especially if you have an underlying health condition like a thyroid problem.

Some general tips for weight loss include:
* Eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein for a balanced and healthy diet
Tracking your food intake and portion sizes
* Incorporating regular physical activity into your routine
* Staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water
* Getting enough sleep and managing stress levels
* Remember, sustainable weight loss takes time and patience.
It's important to prioritize your overall health and well-being rather than just a number on the scale.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
