>Skipper, could you list drugs that have "some form of
>magnesium"?  Are you referring to magnesium stearate?

Probably.  It's a common filler.   It may be they don't use enough to 
interfere with thyroid absorption, but I don't know that.  Other medications 
use forms of calcium as a filler, something else known to interfere with 
thyroid absorption.

I've seen forms of calcium and magnesium in the ingredients of many 
medications, and they could conceivably interfere with thyroid absorption.  
I don't know for sure they do, but they might.
