Possibly, I d get the dose correct and see if any changes occur. They probably won t. Other problems common with thyroid disorders are B12 deficiency (a possible cause of paranoia). I would check with their doctor that there is no underlying problem that can be corrected. Thyroid Question: What kind of nasal decongestant/antihistamine can a person with hypothyroidism take safely? If it indicates that anyone with thyroid disease shouldn t take it, would it interfere with Synthroid medication levels? Answer: This really isn t a problem to take them together. Bipolar Disorder Question: I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder approximately four and a half years ago (at age 30). After close consultation with my physician, we came to a medication regime which includes clonazepam, lithium, and Xanax. In addition, I have moderate asthma which is treated with Azmacort and Ventolin. This medical regime also includes consistent blood testing for lithium serum levels and a thorough thyroid profile.
