Synthroid tablets 100mcg are used to treat hypothyroidism or underactive thyroid, a condition in which the thyroid gland does not make enough thyroid hormone (thyroxine) needed to regulate your body’s growth and metabolism. Hypothyroidism can be idiopathic (of unknown cause) or congenital as in the case of the autoimmune disease Hashimoto's thyroiditis, where the thyroid gland is destroyed by the immune system; it can also be the result of thyroid surgery. Synthroid tablets 100mcg are also used to treat thyroid goitre, which is an enlarged thyroid gland caused by extreme growth of thyroid tissue to compensate for lack of thyroid hormone; also to treat thyroid cancer. Synthroid tablets 100mcg are a replacement hormone to relieve the symptoms of hypothyroidism, including, tiredness, muscle weakness, cramps, feeling the cold, a slow heart rate, dry and flaky skin, hair loss, a deep husky voice and weight gain.

Pharmaceutical companies are taking a proactive step to protect their consumers from the rising health costs and environmental risks associated with prescription drugs.
The Food and Drug Administration is advising consumers not to purchase or use Protonix, a prescription drug that contains the active ingredient levothyroxine. Levothyroxine is a synthetic hormone that is produced naturally by the thyroid gland in individuals with hypothyroidism. The FDA warns consumers that these medications are intended for use in individuals under the age of 18. The medication should not be taken by individuals under the age of 18.
The FDA is working with pharmaceutical companies to educate physicians about the risks and benefits associated with levothyroxine use and to address concerns raised by the agency.
“The FDA is committed to providing safe and effective treatment options for hypothyroidism and is working to ensure patients are advised of the potential side effects associated with the medication,” said Scott C. Dolin, MD, Director of the Office of the Commissioner of the FDA. “This information is critical to the development of safer and more effective treatment options for individuals with hypothyroidism and other conditions.”
The FDA is advising consumers to be cautious when purchasing prescription levothyroxine products online, as these products may be counterfeit and may not contain the correct dosage and dosages. These products may include expired or incorrect dosages of the medication or may contain harmful ingredients. Consumers should exercise caution and ensure that they do not purchase or use these products from unverified sources.

NDC-1035: 4
Product description: Product with active ingredient levothyroxine and inactive ingredients
NDC-1035 is a brand name for the drug Synthroid. It is manufactured by NDC. The company has made a limited list of ingredients for the drug, including a prescription drug and a non-prescription drug. This list is not complete, so when you purchase or use this product, please stop using it and seek the advice of a healthcare professional.
NDC-1035 contains 4 active ingredients. These are L-Tryptophanase Inhibitor, Tryptophanase Inhibitor, and Vitamin E. L-Tryptophanase Inhibitor works by preventing the absorption of tryptophan. It also helps prevent the absorption of vitamins and minerals. Vitamin E is an active ingredient in Synthroid. It is an amino acid that is used to treat autoimmune diseases. It is produced by the thyroid gland.
Thyroid hormone replacement therapy (TRT) is a key component of the treatment of hypothyroidism, a condition that affects 25–60% of adults and 50–60% of children (). In adults and children, it is used in the treatment of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (). TRT is a type of medication that contains levothyroxine, a synthetic form of thyroxine (T4), which helps restore the natural thyroid hormone levels ().
TRT is most effective when taken at the first sign of an underactive thyroid, such as fatigue, weight gain, or a decrease in thyroid hormone levels (). The most commonly used dose of TRT is 25 mcg twice daily (), although the optimal dose is 100 mcg per day. It is important to take this dose regularly in order to minimize side effects and maintain its effectiveness ().
TRT can be initiated by prescribing a prescription from your physician or doctor and then gradually titrated as needed to maintain optimal therapeutic effects. Generally, the recommended starting dose is 50 mcg twice daily ().
After the 50 mcg tablet is ingested, the thyroid gland will produce a small amount of thyroxine (T4), which is converted into thyroxine (T3) by the enzyme T4 (also called TSH) and then converted into the active thyroid hormone, T3 (). This hormone is also the active form responsible for stimulating the conversion of T3 into T4 (). The T4 hormone is also produced in the pituitary gland, where it stimulates the pituitary gland to produce more TSH (). The T3 hormone is then converted into T4 by the same enzyme as T4 and then into T4 by the enzyme T4 (also called TSH), which then is absorbed through the gut and the thyroid gland.
Your physician will determine the appropriate dose of TRT based on your symptoms and your individual response. It is important to take the prescribed dose on an as-needed basis, and not to increase it over a long period of time, as this may cause side effects such as fatigue, weight gain, and decreased energy. It is also important to complete the full course of TRT even if symptoms improve before the medication is finished ().
TRT should be taken with food to avoid upset stomach or gastrointestinal symptoms. If you are eating too much fat or are too heavy, consult a physician for guidance.
TRT is generally well-tolerated and the most common adverse events are somnolence (nausea), constipation, dry mouth, fatigue, and weight gain ().
TRT may cause side effects such as decreased energy, headache, drowsiness, and dizziness ().
TRT is also effective for treating hyperthyroidism, which affects approximately 40–50% of children (). However, more research is needed to fully understand its long-term effects on children and adults ().
Yes, TRT is safe and can be safely used in children for treating hypothyroidism (hypogonadism), which is the absence of thyroid hormone production ().
However, some patients may experience changes in their symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, and decreased energy ().
If you have diabetes, consult your physician for a thorough evaluation of the risks and benefits. If you are on medications that contain thyroid hormone, including levothyroxine (LT4), then your doctor may increase the dose of TRT to 50 mcg twice daily ().
For patients who are not able to take the medication at the same time as those taking LT4, taking the medication at regular intervals is recommended. In some cases, more frequent monitoring may be necessary (). If you have diabetes, your doctor may increase your TRT dose to 100 mcg per day ().
The most common adverse events associated with TRT in children are somnolence, constipation, dry mouth, weight gain, and fatigue ().
TRT may cause side effects such as decreased energy, headache, dry mouth, weight gain, and fatigue ().
The most common adverse effects associated with TRT in children are weight gain, fatigue, and dizziness ().
Some patients may experience weight gain and fatigue ().

Levothyroxine is used to treat hypothyroidism by reducing thyroid function, which is the amount of fat in the body. It replaces a few of the thyroid hormones, which are not required by some other hormones. Levothyroxine is used with caution in patients with a history of adrenal insufficiency.
Levothyroxine is thought to be safe and well tolerated by most patients. However, side effects such as weight loss and improvement in hypothyroidism- like tiredness and hyperactivity including trouble swallowing - have been reported. Sometimes side effects are more likely to occur than side effects are benign.
Levothyroxine can be taken with or without food. Patients should take this medication even if their symptoms improve before the dose is changed.
Levothyroxine is not recommended for patients with a history of liver disease or thyroid cancer. It can be very dangerous to take it along with diethylicip®, which is a synthetic thyroid hormone.
Levothyroxine should be used with caution in patients with hypothyroidism. Patients with thyroid cancer should be monitored closely.
Levothyroxine is an oral medication. It has been reported in patients who are taking levothyroxine and diethylstilbestrol (DES) or thyroid supplementation ().
