Thyro-Tabs is used to treat hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) in both humans and animals. It replaces or supplements the body's natural thyroid hormones in conditions where the thyroid gland is not producing adequate hormones.
Thyro-Tabs contains levothyroxine, a synthetic form of the thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4). Once absorbed, it acts as a replacement for the hormones the thyroid gland would normally produce, helping to restore normal metabolic function throughout the body.
Should be taken on an empty stomach, typically 30-60 minutes before breakfast. Consistent daily timing is important for optimal effect. Regular blood tests are needed to monitor thyroid levels and adjust dosage. Certain medications, supplements, and foods can affect absorption. Do not discontinue without consulting your healthcare provider.
