Carbizole 10 Tablet 100 contains carbimazole (10 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Inhibition of thyroid hormone synthesis: Carbimazole blocks the incorporation of iodine into tyrosine residues of thyroglobulin, which is a crucial step in the production of thyroid hormones.

• Reduction of hormone levels: By preventing the formation of thyroid hormones, it effectively decreases the levels of thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) circulating in your bloodstream.

• Symptom relief: As thyroid hormone levels normalise, symptoms of hyperthyroidism such as rapid heartbeat, tremors, and anxiety gradually improve.

• Store Carbizole 10 Tablet 100 at room temperature (below 25°C).

• Maintain a calcium-rich diet with foods like dairy products, leafy greens and fortified cereals to support bone health, which can be affected by thyroid disorders.
