Abstract

An accurate medication history prevents medication errors during transitions of care, whereas an inaccurate medication history may lead to unnecessary tests or prolonged hospitalization. We describe the case of a patient with chronic hypothyroidism who presented to the hospital with severe hypothyroidism and reported strict adherence to her home levothyroxine.
