Can I take my prenatal vitamin around 5:30 p.m. or is there a risk that this will alter the effectiveness of my medication?

I take synthroid to control my thyroid. I always take it before I go to bed around 10pm. I am currently 10 weeks pregnant.

Hello ma'am, as long as you ensure at least 3 to 4 hours of spacing between your vitamin and Synthroid, no problem.

Sincerely,
