I have been on Synthroid for three years. Last year my dosage was increased to 75MCG.

The results were noticeable. I started losing weight and I wasn't so tired. Aug. 23rd

my Pharmacist switched me to the generic LEVOTHROXIN. In three weeks I have put on 4 lbs

and feeling tired. I'm making an appointment with my Dr. and will have to pay for more blood tests. Has anyone else experienced these changes with the generic brand?
