Thank you for your question and welcome to ADHDCentral.com.

 

I am not a medical professional and would not be able to give you medical advice.

 

I did some research and could not find any information linking Concerta with TSH levels. I can tell you that thyroid disorders can sometimes mimic symptoms of ADHD. Have youspoken to your doctor about your concerns? I would think that if there is a problem your doctor would monitor your TSH levels and treat you accordingly.
