When Can I Take Thyroxine Before Wisdom Tooth Extraction?

I will soon have wisdom tooth extraction under GA. No food or drink from midnight prior to morning surgery, but can have water before 6am. When can I take my thyroxine? Is it ok to take just the thyroxine without having any food afterwards?

Thanks

Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM, as u said that you have wisdom tooth extraction you are asking to take thyroxine tablet or not, it is safe as this tablet is taken before breakfast so it is safe to take this drug.
