Why must levothyroxine be taken on an empty stomach?

Food, calcium, iron and antacids all reduce how much is absorbed, and the dose is finely titrated to a blood level. Consistency matters as much as timing.

Can the dose change over time?

Yes. It is adjusted against TSH blood tests, and needs review in pregnancy, with weight change and when other medicines start.

Is thyroid medicine lifelong?

In most cases of hypothyroidism, yes. Some situations are temporary, and only blood tests and your doctor can tell which you have.
