Hypothyroidism and covid vaccine

2021-08-16 15:23:34
I have hypothyroidism and I take "thyronorm 75mcg" (thyroxine/levothyroxine) everyday before food and I'm planning to get covid shot (covishield). What can I do to prepare myself and is it safe for me to have the vaccine with a hypothyroid condition?

If you are taking the tablet you are not hypothyroid anymore. Ie you are normal. Roll up your sleeves and get both vaccines as soon as possible. The quicker you get it the quicker all of us get out of this pandemic.
