   Taking Cortef and Levothyroxine (Addison's Disease board)

19th July 2007
Does anyone know where I can find out or maybe already have the answer to
if these two drugs should not be taken at the same time of day? I currently take my Cortef, Levothyroxine, Florinef and Clarinex at 5:45 AM. I am wondering if that affects the effectivness of any of those? It seems I read someone on this board post that Cortef and Levo. shouldn't be taken together.

Thanks for any help you can be.

I don't know of any problem taking cortef and synthroid at the same time except that synthroid is best taken at least 1 hour before meals and never with calcium, while cortef is best taken with a meal to spread its absorption out. Most likely that's why people separate them.
