Episode 09.03.2025 - True or False: Levothyroxine Increases Risk of Developing Cancers?

SUMMARY

In this week’s episode of The Dr. Ardis Show, Dr. Ardis sounds the alarm on one of the most widely prescribed thyroid medications in America - levothyroxine. Used by over 22 million Americans to treat hypothyroidism, new research suggests this FDA-approved drug may increase the risk of developing multiple cancers including brain, lung, breast, prostate, bladder, and pancreatic cancers.

Backed by a powerful 2021 population study of over 600,000 patients, Dr. Ardis breaks down findings that levothyroxine use may have a higher risk of developing certain cancers.

If you or someone you love is taking levothyroxine, this is a must-watch episode.
