Drug Uses
Levothroid treats hypothyroidism (low thyroid hormone). It is also used to treat or prevent goiter (enlarged thyroid gland), which can be caused by hormone imbalances, radiation treatment, surgery, or cancer.
How to use
Use Levothroid as directed by your doctor.
Take Levothroid with a full glass (8 ounces) of water.
Take this medicine on an empty stomach, 30 minutes before eating.
Levothroid is usually taken in the morning.
Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Levothroid.
Drug Class and Mechanism
Levothroid is a replacement for a hormone that is normally produced by your thyroid gland to regulate the body's energy and metabolism. Levothroid is given when the thyroid does not produce enough of this hormone on its own.
Missed Dose
Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take the medicine at the next regularly scheduled time. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.
Storage
Store Levothroid between 68 and 77 degrees F (20 and 25 degrees C) in a tightly closed, light-resistant container. Store away from moisture, heat, and light. Do not store in the bathroom. Do not take tablets after the expiration date printed on the label. Keep Levothroid out of the reach of children and away from pets.
