🚨 A recent US recall of certain thyroid medication batches highlighted an important issue.

Some tablets were found to be subpotent, meaning they contained less thyroid hormone than stated on the label.

Before you panic...
✅ This recall affected specific batches in the US, not all thyroid medications.

But it reminds us of something important:
If your body isn't getting enough thyroid hormone, your symptoms can return—even if you're taking your tablet every day.
You may notice:
 • Fatigue
 • Brain fog
 • Hair fall
 • Weight gain
 • Feeling cold
 • Rising TSH

However, a recalled tablet is only one possible reason.
Persistent thyroid symptoms can also be caused by: 
✔ Incorrect dose 
✔ Poor absorption 
✔ Taking thyroid medicine with coffee, food, iron, or calcium 
✔ Gut health issues 
✔ Nutrient deficiencies 
✔ Other underlying health conditions

Don't increase your dose or stop your medication based on social media posts. Always discuss medication changes with your healthcare provider.

✨ If you've been taking thyroid medication but still don't feel like yourself, the next step isn't always a higher dose—it's understanding why.

📅 Book a 1:1 Functional Medicine Consultation if you'd like a detailed review of your symptoms, blood tests, medications, nutrition, and lifestyle to identify the root cause of persistent thyroid symptoms. Comment Thyroid
