How Long Will Side-effects Of The Medicine, L-Carnitine, Last?

i am on a thyroid medication and for the past 4 months started taking lcarnthine. I noticed I was very tired and had started gaining weight even though i am eating less. I just discovered i probably should not have been taking the lcarnthine? How long will it take to leave my system?

Hi,

You should do a thyroid function test in the first place as I do not think its because of the Icarnthine. Anyway, it will leave your system in 2 or 3 days.

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