Levothyroxine is a medication that contains the active ingredient levothyroxine sodium, which is a synthetic form of the thyroid hormone thyroxine. This medication is used to treat hypothyroidism, a condition where the thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones. Levothyroxine works by supplementing the levels of thyroid hormone in your body, helping to restore normal metabolic functions. It is suitable for individuals with an underactive thyroid gland who require hormone replacement therapy.

Dosage and usage

The dosage of Levothyroxine is determined based on your individual thyroid hormone levels and response to treatment. Typically, the starting dose is low and gradually increased as needed. It is usually taken once a day on an empty stomach, at least 30 minutes before breakfast. The effects of Levothyroxine may take several weeks to be noticeable. Do not exceed the prescribed dosage, and do not stop taking the medication suddenly without consulting your healthcare provider. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for your next dose.

It should not be used by individuals who are allergic to any of the ingredients in the medication. If you have heart problems, diabetes, or are taking other medications, consult your doctor before starting Levothyroxine. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also seek medical advice before using this medication.
