These Rx Medications Can DAMAGE Your Thyroid

Statistically speaking, thyroid patients are more likely to be taking prescription medications for other problems like: - Depression - Anxiety - High blood pressure - High blood sugar - Weight gain - And more This is a problem by itself, but there’s an even bigger one: The prescription medications used to treat these very conditions can actually make your thyroid even worse. So in a real sense, you may be taking medications for symptoms caused by your thyroid that circle back to make your thyroid function (and those very symptoms) even worse. Here’s a list of medications that do this and what to do if you are taking any: Category 1. Medications that block T4 to T3 conversion. Category 2. Medications that block TSH production. Category 3. Medications that block thyroid hormone production from the thyroid gland. Category 4. Medications that block thyroid medication absorption. Don’t want to deal with these issues? Your thyroid is very responsive to lifestyle changes and making these changes can improve your thyroid and help you get off these medications for good.
