The side effects of thyroid medicine ( Levothyroxine (synthroid, Unithroid, others)) are not hard to find nor follow - the instructions come with the medicine straight from the pharmacy with your medicine. You should be thoroughly familiar with that information. You can also check the manufacturer's website. Thoroughly read the information from the pharmacy.
Some of the side effects include:
- Partial hair loss may occur during the first few months of taking
- Rapid or abnormal heartbeat

CONCLUSION
Most importantly: don't take medical advice from the internet (including from me). Listen to the professionals: your doctor, pharmacist, and the manufacturer's directions. Read the material that comes with the medicine and you'll find most of the answers to your questions.
