5 Medications That Can Negatively Affect Your Thyroid

Save My Thyroid: Healing Tips for Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's

Aside from antithyroid medication, which is specifically designed to block thyroid hormone, several medications can have an unintended effect on thyroid health. These drugs, often in combination with other underlying imbalances, can potentially trigger hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.
Today, I’m sharing the research on five categories of medication that have been shown to affect thyroid function negatively.
In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- The effect of traditional antiepileptic drugs on thyroid hormone compared to newer drugs
- The impact of antipsychotic drugs on thyroid levels in patients with severe mental disorders
- Lithium’s potential to lower thyroid hormone levels
- Amiodarone's potential ability to cause both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism in patients
- Anti-estrogens and thyroid function in breast cancer patients
As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
