• A: Patients taking Synthroid (levothyroxine) should contact their healthcare provider right away for any changes in weight and appetite. This could be an indication that thyroid hormone levels are off. Your healthcare provider can properly evaluate your levels and your weight gain. Do not stop or change the amount of medication you take without talking to your healthcare provider first. You may also find helpful information at: http://www.everydayhealth.com/drugs/levothyroxine.
