Thyroid

Drug Info for thyroid

Thyroid is used to treat the symptoms of hypothyroidism (a condition where the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone). Symptoms of hypothyroidism include lack of energy, depression, constipation, weight gain, hair loss, dry skin, dry coarse hair, muscle cramps, decreased concentration, aches and pains, swelling of the legs, and increased sensitivity to cold. Thyroid is also used to treat goiter (enlarged thyroid gland). Thyroid is in a class of medications called thyroid agents. It works by supplying the thyroid hormone normally produced by the body.

Nature-Throid is a man-made combination of hormones usually produced by the thyroid gland to control the energy and metabolism in the body. It works by increasing the low level of thyroid hormone in the body. In addition to treating hypothyroidism, this medication is also used to treat or prevent goiter and is used to test patients for thyroid disorders.
