Thyroxine 37.5 mcg: Precision Thyroid Hormone Therapy
Description:
Thyroxine 37.5 mcg (Levothyroxine Sodium) is a synthetic thyroid hormone (T4) used to treat hypothyroidism, a condition in which the thyroid gland fails to produce enough hormones. This dose is particularly helpful for patients needing fine-tuned adjustments between common dosages like 25 mcg and 50 mcg. It supports metabolism, brain function, cardiovascular health, and overall energy regulation.
How to Use:
Take Thyroxine 37.5 mcg once daily, preferably in the morning on an empty stomach, 30 to 60 minutes before eating. Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water.
For best absorption, avoid consuming calcium, iron supplements, antacids, or high-fiber foods within 4 hours of taking the medication. Consistency in timing is essential for effective treatment. Follow your doctor’s dosing instructions carefully. Regular thyroid blood tests (TSH, T3, T4) help monitor your response and guide dosage adjustments.
