What the FDA labels say about taking them together

Levothyroxine and semaglutide

Semaglutide's FDA label (Ozempic) of January 30, 2026 names levothyroxine in its drug interactions section; the levothyroxine labels PlainMeds reads (4) do not name semaglutide. The semaglutide label: “Levothyroxine exposure was increased 33% (90% CI: 1.25 to 1.42) when administered with semaglutide tablets in a drug interaction study.”

Check it at the source: the levothyroxine FDA label on DailyMed (effective February 20, 2024, AbbVie Inc.); the semaglutide FDA label on DailyMed (effective July 30, 2026, A-S Medication Solutions).

These are the labels' own sentences. PlainMeds does not grade interactions; a pharmacist or prescriber can say what they mean for one person's medicines.
