I have been taking thyroxin for an underactive thyroid for 5 years. I have always taken it as instructed on the packet ie in the morning with a big drink of water at least half an hour before food. For maximum effect it must be taken consistently. My insomnia has got unbearable, recently I read that a side effect of thyroxin is insomnia! Great. Doing some research about it led me to read about switching to taking it at night. It is recommended to speak to your GP before switching, may be hard in my case due to difficulties in getting to see him as soon as I would like. Has anyone made this change and did it have any effect on sleep?
