Thyronorm 62.5Mcg Tablet Health Feed

Thyroxine is NOT banned or prohibited in Qatar.
Having said that, I strongly recommend that you carry a genuine prescription by the treating doctor with you along with the meds.

Hello, Thanks for the query. Congenital hypothyroidism will have to treated with adequate dose of Levothyroxine for life. There is no reason to worry if adequate dosage is given & TSH is maintained within specified range. Thanks.

It should be taken empty stomach. Bath or teeth brushing has nothing to fo with it. It is better to take it regularly around same time daily.

Yes you can take beetroot and carrot juice. Take tab. Thyronorm 50 empty stomach and tea and milk one hour after. Use tata iodised salt in salad and fruits. For more contact me on line by paid audio consultation.

lybrate-user, For hypothyroidism using thyroxine tablets for lifetime is the only treatment. No other option. Thanks.

Hi Since you are on treatment with thyroxine 125 mcg tablets, there is no need to do any separate testing. Just take iodinated salt. Since you already have hypothyroidism, the thyroid gland is not functioning optimally. So it hardly matters. All the needs of thyroxine are being met by supplement. You should ensure that TSH level is maintained between 3 to 4 mU/L. If that is not the case then dosage of thyroxine may have to be increased. Thanks.

Hell, Thanks for the query.
Once a person has had thyroidectomy, there will be no Thyroxine secretion in the body. Hence, that person o be put on Levothyroxine for LIFETIME.

Further I have not come across any relationship with coconut and thyroxine or insulin. Only treatment is taking adequate amount of Levothyroxine (Thyronorm tablets) every day. TSH needs to be maintained aro...more

thanks for the query.
Hypothyroidism is a hormone (thyroxine) deficiency disorder, where person's thyroid gland is unable to produce adequate amounts of thyroxine (t4) and triiodothyronine (t3). Both these hormones are required for most of the metabolic functions in the body and also for normal functioning of brain. Therefore, that hormone needs to be supplemented from outside and that too for lifetime. There is no cure. However, if adequate dosage of thyroxine is taken the person remains ab...more

No it is no more required. But you should get your TSH tested every six months and if it rises again you may have to start your medication after consulting you doctor.

Mr Parag, Thanks for the query.
For testing TSH while on treatment, there is no need to stop or dicontinue the thyroxine tablets. The reason TSH is checked is to see the benefit of supplementation, whether the current dose is adequate enough or is there any change needed. With treatment continued, TSh should be maintained around 3 to 4 mU/L, if the level is too low or higher than mentioned, both situations need some adjustment. Thanks.
