Could Actalin Be Taken Along With Thyroid Medication?
Can I take Actalin with my thyroid medication? I take Levothroxin 112 mcg. But for the last month or so I have been unusually stressed and fatigued. I went to my Dr yesterday and she is checking my thyroid levels to see if I need a higher dose of my medication. I would like also to try some herbal medications but don t want to overdo

Hello,
Continue Levothyroxine according to TSH levels. TSH should be done every 6 months. Actaline is said to be a natural thyroid supplement with a total of 17 ingredients with unpredictable effects.
Why risk your health, invite hyperthyroidaemic crisis and complicate your scenario when you can have control with levothyroxine only.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
