Description
Levothyroxine T4 50 mcg 50 Tab is a thyroid hormone supplement. It contains the active ingredient levothyroxine, a synthetic version of the naturally-occurring thyroid hormone thyroxine. This medication works by replacing or supplementing the naturally-occurring thyroid hormone (T4) that the body can no longer produce. It is used to treat hypothyroidism, a condition in which the thyroid gland doesn’t produce enough of the hormone. It may also be used to treat goiters, a condition in which the thyroid swells. In addition, it can be used to treat Graves’ disease, an autoimmune condition in which the body produces too much of the hormone.
