Neo Mercazole 20 Tablet 130

Neo Mercazole 20 Tablet 130 is used to treat hyperthyroidism by lowering excess thyroid hormone levels that cause symptoms like weight loss and rapid heartbeat. Doctors also prescribe it before thyroid surgery or radioactive iodine treatment to stabilise hormone levels. It helps prepare the body for these procedures and supports safer, more effective thyroid management.

Neo Mercazole 20 Tablet 130 contains carbimazole (20 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Inhibition of thyroid hormone synthesis: Carbimazole acts as a pro-drug that converts to its active form in your body, blocking the production of thyroid hormones in the thyroid gland.

• Enzyme blocking action: It specifically inhibits the enzymes needed for your thyroid to produce hormones, helping to reduce the excessive hormone levels in your bloodstream.

• Normalisation of thyroid function: By gradually reducing the amount of thyroid hormones being produced, carbimazole helps restore balance to your body's metabolic processes that are controlled by these hormones.

• Symptom management: The medicine effectively addresses the physical symptoms of hyperthyroidism by targeting the root cause—the overproduction of thyroid hormones.

• Check the expiry date before use, and do not take if expired.

• Include iodine-rich foods like seafood and dairy products in moderation, as they help maintain thyroid function balance when you have hyperthyroidism.

• Avoid caffeine-containing beverages (tea, coffee, energy drinks) as they may worsen symptoms like rapid heartbeat and nervousness associated with an overactive thyroid.
