Yes any gut issues can hamper absorption issues for any oral meds or supplements. I just experienced this to the extreme during my second pregnancy. I actually had to change from commercial thyroid meds which are made from synthetic byproduct like petroleum etc to compounded porcine because I was reacting to it because I have mcas.
