Guest guest Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 I suggest to clients that wake up during the night to use the washroom or that wake up before they need to get out of bed that they keep their synthroid and a glass of water beside their bed. That way, it doesn't interfere with getting a good breakfast in right away. It does seem to make a difference in how effective their dosage is.
