Thyroid and acidity tablet
I have hypothyroid, and i take thyroxin 75mg as soon as i wake up in the morning. I recently developed a stomach problem where i have bloating in the lower abdomen. My doctor has prescribed NexPro 40mg 1-0-1 BF and Providac capsule 1-1-1 AF. I recently read that thyroid medicine and acidity medicine should not be taken together. Please advise after how many hours of taking thyroid tablet, i should take acidity tablet?
Thyroid meds - first thing after waking up.
Ppi - atleast 1 - 2 hours later, however 30 mins before food

You should take the Thyroid tablet in the morning when you get up. You should take the acidity tablet after a gap of one hour after the Thyroid tablet.
