Nearly 5% of Americans aged 12 and older have hypothyroidism, many relying on levothyroxine [1.8.4]. As GLP-1 agonists rise in popularity, a key question emerges for patients: **Can you take a GLP-1 while on levothyroxine?**

Limited evidence suggests that in some cases, sertraline may decrease levothyroxine efficacy, potentially affecting thyroid hormone levels. While not an absolute contraindication, understanding how to manage this combination is crucial, raising questions about whether and how can I take sertraline and levothyroxine together safely.
