Synthroid
Synthroid contains the active ingredient levothyroxine sodium.
Levothyroxine is the same as the hormone thyroxine, which is produced naturally by the thyroid gland.
The thyroid gland produces and releases two thyroid hormones: thyroxine (T4) and tri-iodothyronine (T3).
Tri-iodothyronine is the more active thyroid hormone, and thyroxine is converted into T3 in various parts of the body.
These hormones are responsible for maintaining a normal rate of metabolism in the body.
When the thyroid gland is unable to produce normal amounts of thyroxine, the level of both thyroid hormones in the blood decreases.
This results in a reduced rate of metabolism, leading to symptoms such as weight gain, intolerance to cold and tiredness.
Synthroid tablets are given to replace the thyroxine that would normally be produced naturally by the thyroid gland.
This returns levels of T3 and T4 to normal.
Once the thyroid gland becomes unable to produce thyroxine, it will generally not return to normal function.
This means that once thyroxine replacement is started, it usually needs to be taken for the rest of a person's life.
The daily dose should preferably be taken before breakfast.
Dosage
Your doctor will tailor the dosage to meet your individual requirements, taking into consideration the status of your thyroid gland and other medical conditions you may have. Older adults often require somewhat smaller doses. To make sure the dosage is right for you, the doctor will monitor your thyroid hormone level with periodic blood tests.
