Thyronorm 25 mcg Tablet is used to treat hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). It contains Thyroxine sodium, which replaces or provides more thyroid hormone in the body when the body is unable to naturally produce enough thyroid hormone (Thyroxine) to meet the requirements of the body. It may cause side effects such as headache, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, sweating, muscle cramps, shaking (usually of hands) and feeling restless or excitable, or problems sleeping. Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.

My TSH is 5.9,t3,t4 is under level,I am facing hairfall,fatique,weight gain issue,kindly suggest me thyronum25 ,will be ok?
Dr Bayyarapu Kumar

Your thyroid test shows a TSH of 5.9, which is higher than normal, and low T3 and T4 levels. This often points to hypothyroidism, which can cause symptoms like hair loss, fatigue, and weight gain. The best step is to share these results with your doctor, who can confirm the diagnosis and decide if treatment is needed. It’s important not to start or adjust thyroid medicines on your own, because the dose must be tailored and monitored with repeat tests. In the meantime, maintaining a balanced diet, regular exercise, good sleep, and stress management can help support your overall health.
I have had hypothyroidism for more than 15 years, and I am obese, but I do not have diabetes or high blood pressure. Is there any effective homoeopathic treatment that may help me manage this condition?
Dr S Aneela
M. Pharm (Pharmacology)., PhD
Hypothyroidism is a long-term condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones, and it is usually treated with thyroid hormone replacement medicines. Homoeopathic remedies may help some people feel better, but there is limited medical evidence that they can control thyroid hormone levels. Maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management are also important. Consult a doctor to monitor your thyroid levels and continue the most suitable treatment.
My recent blood test shows that my TSH has increased to 281, and my T3 and T4 levels are slightly below the normal range. I have previously been taking 25 mcg of Thyronorm tablets. Should my dosage be increased, and what would be the appropriate new dose?
Dr S Aneela
M. Pharm (Pharmacology)., PhD
A TSH level of 281 with slightly low T3 and T4 indicates severe hypothyroidism and suggests that your current dose of Thyronorm may not be sufficient to manage your thyroid levels. You should consult your doctor promptly, as the dose may need to be increased gradually, with thyroid tests repeated after about 6 to 8 weeks to monitor the response. Do not adjust the dose on your own without medical supervision.
I've done a thyroid test because of unexplained weight gain and found my T3, T4, and TSH levels. Who should I consult for advice and potential medication?
Dr G Reddy

You should consult a physician or an endocrinologist for thyroid-related test results. They can review your T3, T4, and TSH levels, explain the cause of weight gain, and start or adjust thyroid medication if needed.
