SYNTHROID or levothyroxine sodium tablets are a prescription, man-made thyroid hormone used to treat a condition called hypothyroidism. It is meant to replace the thyroid hormone that is usually made by your thyroid gland.
What does Thyroid do?
The thyroid gland is located in the front lower part of your neck. Hormones released by the gland travel through your bloodstream and affect nearly every part of your body, from your heart and brain, to your muscles and skin.Thyroid regulates the body’s energy and metabolism.In children, having enough thyroid hormone is important for normal mental and physical development.
Using Synthroid:
Doctors prescribe Synthroid when the body doesn’t make enough thyroid by itself. Generally, thyroid replacement treatment is to be taken for life. Synthroid is also used to treat or prevent goiter (enlarged thyroid gland), which can be caused by hormone imbalances, radiation treatment, surgery, or cancer.
Synthroid Dosage:
When you are diagnosed with underactive thyroid, the dose of SYNTHROID your doctor prescribes begins to work over a period of weeks. Don’t be alarmed if your doctor changes your SYNTHROID dose, this is to find the one dose that is right for you. Once the right dose has been determined by your doctor, a physical examination and testing of your thyroid hormone levels should be carried out at least once a year.
Even if you feel well, you may still need to take SYNTHROID every day for the rest of your life to replace the thyroid hormone your body cannot produce.
