Schedule a doctor’s appointment immediately if you experience any significant changes in your health after starting Synthroid 0.1 mg. This includes unexpected weight changes (gain or loss), changes in your heart rate (either faster or slower than usual), or noticeable changes in bowel habits.
Contact your physician if you develop symptoms like muscle weakness, tremors, or increased anxiety or irritability. These could indicate your dosage needs adjustment. Similarly, report any difficulty sleeping, nervousness, or increased sweating.
Regular monitoring of your thyroid hormone levels is vital. Your doctor will schedule blood tests to assess your TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) levels, ensuring your dosage remains appropriate. Don’t hesitate to contact them if you have concerns about your upcoming blood test or the results you receive.
