Thyroid, generically known as Desiccated thyroid, is a prescribed medication used for decades to treat hypothyroidism. Desiccated thyroid is derived from porcine or bovine sources and contains both T3 and T4 hormones. It has been linked with improved energy levels, weight loss, and general wellbeing.
Desiccated thyroid is a combination of hormones that are normally produced by the thyroid gland to regulate your body’s energy and metabolism. It is given when the thyroid does not produce enough of this hormone on its own and is used to treat or prevent goiter (an enlarged thyroid gland) and hypothyroidism (low thyroid hormone). It is also sometimes given as part of medical tests for thyroid disorders. Desiccated thyroid is generally taken orally in the form of a tablet.
Thyroid tablets are taken by mouth with water, usually once a day on an empty stomach at least 30 minutes to one hour before eating breakfast. Take the medication at the same time each day, as directed by your doctor. Continue taking the medication as prescribed unless your doctor tells you to stop. Taking the medication with food, missing doses, or stopping the medication without consulting your doctor can cause your thyroid levels to become unbalanced, so make sure to follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.
The usual adult dosage of thyroid for hypothyroidism is an initial dose of 30 mg orally per day, followed by increments of 15 mg per day every 2 to 3 weeks, until a usual maintenance dose of 60 to 120 mg per day is reached.
Usual children dosage of thyroid for hypothyroidism
Thyroid is available in the following forms and strengths:
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you can. If it is almost time for your next dose, take only that dose. Do not take double or extra doses.
It is best to take on an empty stomach, at least 30 minutes to one hour before breakfast. Keep taking it unless your health care provider tells you to stop.
Keep out of the reach of children and pets. Store at room temperature between 15 and 30 degrees C (59- and 86-degrees F). Protect from light and moisture. Keep container tightly closed. Throw away any unused medication after the expiration date.
