LETHYROX 100 MCG

LETHYROX 100 mcg TABLET are synthetic thyroid hormones that take the place of the body’s own thyroid hormone when the body isn’t making enough of its own thyroid hormone to meet its needs. The thyroid hormone supplement LETHYROX 100 mcg TABLET is used to treat hypothyroidism and low levels of thyroid hormone production. It has the thyroid hormone levothyroxine in it, which is made in a lab but is chemically similar to the thyroid hormone thyroxine that our gland makes. Levothyroxine helps replace thyroid hormone and/or relieve stress on the thyroid gland.

Hypothyroidism is a long-term condition in which the thyroid gland, which is in the back of the neck, doesn’t make enough thyroid hormone. Triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine make up thyroid hormones, which control the body’s metabolism (T4). When a person has an underactive thyroid, their metabolism slows down and they feel less energetic. Other signs and symptoms include feeling tired, having trouble going to the bathroom, gaining weight, feeling cold even when it’s warm outside, having dry skin, having too many or too few periods (in women), and even feeling sad. Hypothyroidism needs to be treated so that the body’s metabolism can get back to normal (basal metabolic rate).

If you have any of the above symptoms, your doctor will recommend a blood test called a “thyroid function test.” This test looks at three thyroid hormones: TSH, T3, and T4. If your TSH level is too high and your T3/T4 level is too low, this could mean that your thyroid gland isn’t working right. Your weight and the results of your thyroid function test will help your doctor decide how much LETHYROX 100 mcg TABLET to give you. It could take a few weeks for the full effects of the drug to show. To make sure you are getting the most out of your LETHYROX 100 mcg TABLET, you should have your thyroid function checked regularly.

Take one LETHYROX 100 mcg TABLET once a day, with a full glass of water, one-half to one hour before breakfast, unless your doctor tells you otherwise. If you take too much LETHYROX 100 mcg TABLET, you might get headaches, anxiety, restlessness, irritability, diarrhea, muscle spasms, weight loss, feeling hot even when it’s cold, irregular periods (in women), and a skin rash. If you miss a dose, don’t take a double dose because it could make things much worse.

In order to help your bones stay healthy, your doctor may also give you calcium or vitamin D supplements. LETHYROX 100 mcg TABLET is not just meant to help people lose weight. People with diabetes who take LETHYROX 100 mcg TABLET may have changes in how well their blood sugar is controlled. If this happens, they may need to take more diabetes medicines or insulin. So, people with diabetes who start, change, or stop thyroid hormone therapy should talk to a doctor and keep a close eye on their blood glucose levels.

The 100 mcg LETHYROX TABLET is used for the following: Hypothyroidism is a condition where the thyroid gland doesn’t work as it should (underactive thyroid)
