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.

Armour Thyroid is a medication that has been used to treat underactive thyroid problems (hypothyroidism). Armour Thyroid is a thyroid extract from animal sources. Armour Thyroid is the brand name for desiccated thyroid or thyroid extract from pork sources. Desiccated thyroid has been available for over 100 years. For the treatment of hypothyroidism, the use of Armour Thyroid is not as common as in the past.
