Slimo Fast's own ingredient list has guggul and green tea extract, and both of these can interact with thyroid treatment. Guggul has thyroid-stimulating effects of its own, and green tea can reduce how well Thyronorm gets absorbed if taken close together, which can throw off a dose that's currently working for you.
Next Steps
Please check with your physician or endocrinologist before starting it, since you're already on Thyronorm and a cholesterol tablet. If they're fine with it, keep a good gap from your Thyronorm dose rather than taking them together.
Health Tips
Watch for new tremor, restlessness or sudden weight change after starting it, and get your thyroid levels rechecked a few weeks in to confirm your Thyronorm is still working as it should.
