I'm this case I would take it first thing in the morning because after sleeping all night your stomach is empty. Or you can take it about 2â3 hours after eating your stomach should be empty then. Don't eat for at least 30 minutes after taking it an hour would be better. I know some people set an alarm for very early morning for their thyroid meds, because it's to be taken in an empty stomach. Then go back to bed and sleep longer so it is for sure on an empty stomach. And yes empty stomach means absence of food and drink, except water.
