My Nursing manager agreed to administer thyroid medication in the morning and on empty stomach but i found the medicine can be administered in the morning and or night , the purpose is to minimize binding to food avoid erratic absorption and improve the thyroid function .
Graves Disease'r here too. Now that I'm days, I do my pill on my way out the door to work. When I did nights I had to shift it around, but figured that getting it in, even with chow in the belly, was more important than not taking it at all

One of our internal medicine docs told us that, for people who forget to take their mess regularly, you can take a week's worth of your meds at once, once a week.
