Levothyroxine is a replacement for a hormone that is normally produced by your thyroid gland to regulate the body’s energy and metabolism.

• Q: I am taking Synthroid and Didrocal and have trouble losing weight. Does either of these meds contribute to my problem? • A: Weight gain or difficulty losing weight is not listed as an adverse reaction in Synthroid’s package insert. Didrocal is not commercially available in the United States. Didrocal does not appear to cause weight gain or difficulty in losing weight. There are many other factors that can contribute to weight gain or trouble losing weight. It’s important to consult your physician or health care provider about any specific question regarding your medical conditions or medications, particularly before taking any action.
