Eltroxin 125mcg Tablet 60 contains Thyroxine (125 mcg), which works on the body as follows:

• Hormone replacement: Thyroxine is a synthetic version of the naturally occurring thyroid hormone (T4) that replaces missing thyroid hormones in the body, restoring normal energy levels and metabolism in patients with hypothyroidism.

• Metabolic regulation: It helps control how quickly your body uses energy, affecting nearly every organ in your body, including how your heart beats and how your digestive system works.

• TSH suppression: In cases of thyroid cancer, thyroxine reduces the secretion of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) from the pituitary gland, which can slow down the growth of thyroid tumours dependent on this hormone.

• Goitre reduction: By providing adequate thyroid hormone levels, it reduces the stimulation of the thyroid gland, helping to decrease the size of an enlarged thyroid (goitre).

• Store Eltroxin 125mcg Tablet 60 at room temperature below 25°C.

• Keep the medicine protected from heat, light and moisture.

• Always store in the original container with the lid tightly closed.

• Keep out of reach of children and pets.

• Do not use the medicine after its expiry date.

• Consistent meal timing: Try to take your meals at the same times each day to help maintain steady thyroid hormone levels and support your metabolism.

• Calcium spacing: If you take calcium supplements, consume them at least 4 hours before or after taking Eltroxin 125mcg Tablet 60, as calcium can reduce thyroxine absorption.
