Worth knowing about

Can you take Ashwagandha with thyroid hormone?

Ashwagandha raises thyroid hormone

What happens

Ashwagandha has been shown to increase T4, which can stack with your prescribed dose.

Drugs in this class include Levothyroxine / Synthroid, Liothyronine.

What to do about it

If you take it anyway, retesting TSH 6–8 weeks later tells you whether your dose still fits.

This is general information compiled from published pharmacology, not advice about your situation. Your dose, your other medication and your bloodwork all matter, and a pharmacist can see those in a way this page cannot.
