Description
Levothyroxine 150 mcg is a synthetic form of the thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4), used primarily for the treatment of hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). This medication works by replacing or supplementing the deficient thyroid hormone in the body, thus helping to restore normal metabolic activity.
The drug acts by binding to thyroid hormone receptors in cells, influencing the expression of specific genes that control metabolic processes, including growth, energy production, and the regulation of temperature. Inadequate levels of thyroid hormone can lead to a range of symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, depression, and cold intolerance.
Levothyroxine is generally taken orally, and the dosage is tailored to the individual based on their thyroid hormone levels, with regular blood tests to monitor effectiveness and adjust the dose as necessary. It is important to follow the prescribed regimen closely to avoid both over-treatment (hyperthyroidism) and under-treatment (continued hypothyroidism).
