Can Euthyrox be absorbed if Metformin has caused me increased intestinal peristalsis?

Good morning, from the recommendations of the diabetologist, for insulin resistance I took metformine, glucophage 500xr for several days. The endocrinologist prescribed me euthyrox. Metformin caused me to have increased peristalsis over and over again. Can thyroid hormones be absorbed in such conditions?

Thank you for sharing your case. Nearly a third of patients report various gastrointestinal adverse reactions during metformin therapy (abdominal pain, nausea/vomiting, flatulence, diarrhoea/constipation, metallic aftertaste in the mouth, decreased appetite). These symptoms are temporary and disappear after: dose reduction, taking the drug simultaneously with a meal or immediately after it. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/33313/glucophage-xr-tabletki/ulotka/194079 Please note that side effects of medicines should be reported to your doctor or individually. By reporting side effects, you help other patients, including your loved ones, who may also need the same medicine one day. This step also allows you to gather more information on the safety of medicinal products and update data on them. I encourage you to report an adverse reaction if you have not already done so: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane The maximum plasma concentration of Euthyrox N occurs approximately 5 to 6 hours after administration, so the medicine is absorbed before this time. There is no exact way to determine whether diarrhea will cause the effect of the drug to be fully preserved. To find out, it would be necessary to determine the concentration of the drug in the blood after the onset of diarrhea in the laboratory. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/28213/euthyrox-n-50-tabletki/ulotka/86248 In this case, I encourage you to consult your doctor, who will recommend the appropriate therapeutic treatment for you.
