Uses of Thyronorm 100mcg Tab

Thyronorm 100mcg Tab is used to replace thyroid hormone when the thyroid gland does not make enough, a condition called hypothyroidism. Low thyroid hormone can cause tiredness, weight gain, feeling cold, constipation, dry skin and low mood. It is also used for some types of goitre and after thyroid surgery. Treatment is usually lifelong.

How Thyronorm 100mcg Tab works

Levothyroxine is a man-made form of thyroxine (T4), the main hormone produced by the thyroid gland. The body converts it into the active hormone T3, which controls how fast the body uses energy, restoring normal metabolism.

Possible side effects

At the right dose, Thyronorm 100mcg Tab rarely causes side effects. If the dose is too high, you may notice:

• Palpitations or a fast heartbeat
• Tremor
• Sweating or feeling hot
• Trouble sleeping

Seek urgent help for chest pain, a fast or irregular heartbeat, or signs of an allergic reaction.

Precautions and warnings

• Take it on an empty stomach, usually before breakfast, at the same time each day.
• Keep a gap between it and iron, calcium or antacids, which reduce its absorption.
• Regular TSH blood tests guide the dose, so do not change it yourself.
• Tell your doctor if you have heart disease, diabetes or adrenal problems.
• If you become pregnant, tell your doctor promptly, as the dose often needs adjusting.
