Description:
Thyroxine Sodium I.P 150 mcg is a higher-strength synthetic thyroid hormone (levothyroxine) used to treat hypothyroidism, where the thyroid gland fails to produce enough hormone naturally. This dosage is typically prescribed for individuals who require a stronger hormone replacement due to the severity of thyroid deficiency, previous thyroid surgery, or in thyroid cancer suppression therapy.
The active ingredient, Thyroxine Sodium, is a synthetic form of thyroxine (T4), a key hormone produced by the thyroid gland. It works by restoring adequate hormone levels, thereby maintaining normal metabolism, energy production, and body temperature regulation.
