Mercury Pharm Levothyroxine Tablet 100mcg x28

Levothyroxine Tablet 100micrograms is a synthetic thyroid hormone used to treat hypothyroidism and other thyroid disorders. This medication contains levothyroxine sodium, which replaces or supplements the body’s natural thyroid hormones. Levothyroxine helps restore normal thyroid hormone levels, alleviating symptoms associated with thyroid deficiency. Uses Levothyroxine Tablet 100mcg is primarily used to: Treat hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) Manage goiter (enlarged thyroid gland) Suppress thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) in thyroid cancer patients Serve as part of the treatment for myxedema coma Benefits Restores normal metabolism and energy levels Relieves fatigue and weakness associated with hypothyroidism Reduces cold sensitivity and improves temperature regulation Normalizes heart rate and cardiovascular function Helps manage healthy weight by improving metabolism Reduces hair loss and improves skin condition Enhances cognitive function and mental clarity Regulates menstrual cycles in women with thyroid dysfunction Supports proper growth and development in children How It Works Levothyroxine functions as a replacement for thyroxine (T4), the primary hormone naturally produced by the thyroid gland. After absorption, it converts to triiodothyronine (T3) in peripheral tissues. These hormones regulate metabolism, affecting virtually every organ system by controlling how cells use energy and proteins. Dosage Patient Type Starting Dosage Maintenance Dosage Adults 25-50mcg daily 100-200mcg daily Elderly 12.5-25mcg daily 50-100mcg daily Take Mercury Pharm Levothyroxine once daily on an empty stomach, 30-60 minutes before breakfast. Dosage requires adjustment based on thyroid function tests. Duration of Action Levothyroxine begins working within hours of ingestion, but due to its long half-life (approximately 7 days), full therapeutic effects may take 4-6 weeks to become apparent. Regular blood tests are required to monitor thyroid levels and adjust dosage appropriately. Side Effects Most side effects occur with excessive dosage and mimic hyperthyroidism: rapid heartbeat, anxiety, tremors, headache, insomnia, and weight loss. Gastrointestinal disturbances may occur initially. Allergic reactions are rare but require immediate medical attention if they occur. Warning Do not use to treat obesity or weight problems. Taking too much can cause serious heart problems, bone loss, or other health issues. Never adjust dosage without medical supervision. Report chest pain, palpitations, excessive sweating, unusual nervousness, or shortness of breath immediately to healthcare provider. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding Levothyroxine is safe during pregnancy and often requires increased dosage. Untreated hypothyroidism poses greater risk to pregnancy than the medication itself. Regular monitoring is essential. Minimal amounts pass into breast milk and are not harmful to nursing infants. Interaction Reduced absorption when taken with calcium or iron supplements Decreased effectiveness with certain antacids and sucralfate May alter requirements for diabetes medications Potential interaction with blood thinners like warfarin Cholestyramine and colestipol can decrease absorption Precaution Patients with cardiovascular disease require careful dosing initiation. Those with adrenal insufficiency need treatment before starting levothyroxine to prevent acute adrenal crisis. Elderly patients and those with longstanding hypothyroidism need gradual dose increases. Regular thyroid function monitoring is essential. Important Information Mercury Pharm Levothyroxine is a lifelong treatment for most patients with hypothyroidism. Different brands may not be equivalent; maintain consistency with your prescribed brand. Take at the same time daily to maintain stable blood levels. Annual thyroid function tests are recommended even when symptoms are controlled.
