About THYROUP 125MCG TABLET

  • April 9, 2024 3:34 AM PDT

    THYROUP 125MCG TABLET is primarily indicated for the treatment of hypothyroidism or low secretion of thyroid hormone. It comprises levothyroxine, which is a synthetic thyroid hormone that is chemically similar to thyroxine, which is produced by our thyroid glands. Levothyroxine helps to replace missing thyroid hormones and/or relieve stress on the thyroid gland.

    THYROUP 125MCG TABLET contains Levothyroxine sodium, which works by replacing the body's normally produced thyroid hormone. THYROUP 125MCG TABLET minimizes symptoms of low thyroid hormones like unknown weight gain, fatigue, sensitivity to the cold and many more. Thus, it helps in replacing the body's own natural thyroid hormone, which is essential for maintaining both mental and physical health.

    THYROUP 125MCG TABLET usually does not have major side effects when taken regularly in the prescribed dosage, but overdosage may cause headache, nervousness, sleeplessness, irritability, diarrhoea, muscle spasm, weight loss, feeling hot even in cool environments, menstrual irregularities (in women) and skin rash. If you miss a dose, do not take a double dose, as it may produce serious side effects.
