It is a brand name for levothyroxine. I take the same drug by another brand eveyday because I have Graves disease and it caused hyperthyroidism after the radioactive treatment I became hypothyroid. My endocrinologist said it would be no problem with further pregnancies or breastfeeding if my levels were normal with medication. >Untreated hypothroidism could be a problem. > >Pat Gorman CLE >
