Hello.
The best way to take the medication is as soon as you get up in the morning. This is empty stomach. Following this you must keep 60 minutes gap for your routine morning drink or breakfast. You can have water during this gap. With this your thyroid will be managed optimally.
I hope you understand. Take care.
