Uses of Thyroneed 88 Tablet

Hypothyroidism

Benefits of Thyroneed 88 Tablet

In Hypothyroidism
Thyroneed replaces the thyroid hormone your gland is no longer making, restoring energy, concentration, body temperature and weight to normal. Taken every day, it lets you live a completely normal life.
In Goitre
Thyroneed supplies the thyroid hormone the body lacks, which can shrink an enlarged thyroid gland and stop it growing further.
In Thyroid hormone replacement
Thyroneed provides the thyroid hormone your body cannot make itself, for example after thyroid surgery or radioiodine treatment, so metabolism stays normal.

How Thyroneed 88 Tablet works

Thyroneed 88mcg Tablet is a synthetic version of a hormone produced by the thyroid gland. It works by replacing the thyroid hormones that your thyroid gland cannot produce in a sufficient quantity, and relieves the symptoms of hypothyroidism (tiredness, weight gain, and depression).

How to take Thyroneed 88 Tablet

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it. Thyroneed 88mcg Tablet is to be taken on an empty stomach.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

If you miss a dose of Thyroneed 88mcg Tablet, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause a racing heart, chest pain, tremor, fever and dangerous heart rhythm disturbance. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Thyroneed 88 Tablet

Most side effects of Thyroneed are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Palpitations
  • Tremor
  • Sweating
  • Weight loss
  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Anxiety

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Warnings and precautions

Take it on an empty stomach, first thing in the morning, with water, and wait at least half an hour to an hour before eating or drinking anything else. Food, tea and coffee substantially reduce how much is absorbed. Separate it by at least four hours from calcium, iron, antacids and multivitamins — these bind it and block absorption. This is usually lifelong treatment. Do not stop when your reports come back normal; the normal report is the medicine working. Report palpitations, tremor, marked weight loss or difficulty sleeping — these suggest the dose is too high. Tell your doctor if you become pregnant; the requirement usually rises and needs prompt adjustment.

Do not take Thyroneed if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for people with an untreated overactive thyroid or untreated adrenal insufficiency.

Interactions with other medicines

Calcium, iron, antacids, multivitamins and some cholesterol medicines block absorption — separate them by four hours. Tell your doctor if you take a blood thinner or diabetes medicine; doses may need review.

How to store Thyroneed 88 Tablet

Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.

Quick tips for Thyroneed 88 Tablet

  • No food, milk, or tea should be taken 1 hour before and 2 hours after taking this medicine.
