Hello, thanks for the query. For treating hypothyroidism it is essential to take levothyroxine tablet early morning on empty stomach and later nothing should be taken for next 1 hour. I am sure you are aware that to remain free from symptoms of that condition it is essential to maintain tsh around 3 to 4 mu/l. As regards taking vitamin c 500 mg, usually on an average a person needs 75 mg in females and 90 mg in men. 600 mg tablets are usually given for building immunity or to correct deficiency it detected. So there is no need to take that dosage all the while. Citrus fruits like orange, sweet lemon, lemon, amla even guava provide good quantity of vitamin c. Thanks.
