Milk thistle is commonly used for liver support, but with Thyronorm for hypothyroidism, it’s best to check for any interaction before starting.

Milk thistle is generally considered safe and is often used for liver support. However, since you are on Thyronorm (levothyroxine) for hypothyroidism, it is important to know that milk thistle may slightly affect thyroid hormone metabolism in some people. It is best to take it at a different time from your Thyronorm dose, and keep monitoring your TSH levels regularly.
