Dosing Considerations
Readjustment of thyroid hormone dosage should be made within the first four weeks of therapy, after proper clinical and laboratory evaluations, including serum levels of T4, bound and free, and TSH
Desicated thyroid form contains variable amounts of T3, T4, and other triiodothyronine compounds which are more likely to cause signs or symptoms due to fluctuating levels

Warnings
Black Box Warning
Drugs with thyroid hormone activity, alone or together with other therapeutic agents, used for the treatment of obesity; in euthyroid patients, doses within range of daily hormonal requirements are ineffective for weight reduction
Larger doses may produce serious or even life-threatening manifestations of toxicity, particularly when given in association with sympathomimetic amines such as those used for their anorectic effects
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to thyroid hormone
Untreated thyrotoxicosis, untreated adrenal insufficiency
Cautions
Use caution; symptoms may be exaggerated or aggravated; glucocorticoid treatment should precede thyroid replacement therapy in patients with adrenal insufficiency
Use with caution in cardiovascular disease, angina, HTN, endocrine disorders, elderly
Use cautioin in diabetes mellitus and insipidus; therapy may aggravate or exaggerate symptoms
Judicious use in AMI complicated or caused by hypothyroidism may be considered
Ineffective in the treatment of obesity or of infertility uncomplicated by hypothyroidism
Myxedema symptoms may be exaggerated or aggravated; therapy of myxedema coma requires simultaneous administration of glucocorticoids; use caution; administer low dose to patients with long-standing myxedemay
Drug interaction overview
Hypothyroidism decreases and hyperthyroidism increases sensitivity to oral anticoagulants; prothrombin time should be closely monitored in thyroid-treated patients on oral anticoagulants and dosage of the latter agents adjusted on the basis of frequent prothrombin time determinations; in infants, excessive doses of thyroid hormone preparations may produce craniosynostosis
Pregnancy & Lactation
Pregnancy
Thyroid hormones do not readily cross the placental barrier; clinical experience to date does not indicate any adverse effect on fetuses when thyroid hormones are administered to pregnant women
On the basis of current knowledge, thyroid replacement therapy to hypothyroid women should not be discontinued during pregnancy
Lactation
Minimal amounts of thyroid hormones are excreted in human milk; thyroid is not associated with serious adverse reactions and does not have a known tumorigenic potential; however, caution should be exercised when thyroid is administered to a nursing woman
Pregnancy Categories
A: Generally acceptable. Controlled studies in pregnant women show no evidence of fetal risk.
B: May be acceptable. Either animal studies show no risk but human studies not available or animal studies showed minor risks and human studies done and showed no risk. C: Use with caution if benefits outweigh risks. Animal studies show risk and human studies not available or neither animal nor human studies done. D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk. X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist. NA: Information not available.Pharmacology

THYROID - ORAL
(THYE-royd)
COMMON BRAND NAME(S): Armour Thyroid
WARNING: This medication should not be used for weight loss. Normal doses of this medication will not work for weight loss, and large doses of this medication may cause serious, possibly fatal side effects, especially when taken with diet pills.
USES: Thyroid hormone is used to treat underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism). It is a natural product made from animal thyroid glands (usually a pig's). It replaces or provides more thyroid hormone, which is normally produced by the thyroid gland. Low thyroid hormone levels can occur naturally or when the thyroid gland is injured by radiation/medications or removed by surgery. Having enough thyroid hormone is important for maintaining normal mental and physical activity. In children, having enough thyroid hormone is important for normal mental and physical development.This medication is also used to treat other types of thyroid disorders (such as certain types of goiters, thyroid cancer) and also to test for thyroid function.This medication should not be used to treat infertility unless it is caused by low thyroid hormone levels.Older adults should discuss the risks and benefits of this medication with their doctor or pharmacist.
HOW TO USE: Take this medication by mouth as directed by your doctor, usually once daily on an empty stomach, 30 minutes to 1 hour before breakfast.Dosage is based on your medical condition, laboratory test results, and response to treatment. For children, the dosage is also based on age/weight.Use this medication regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same time each day.Do not stop taking this medication without first consulting with your doctor. Thyroid replacement treatment is usually taken for life.Certain medications (cholestyramine, colestipol, colesevelam, antacids, sucralfate, simethicone, iron, sodium polystyrene sulfonate, calcium carbonate, orlistat) can decrease the amount of thyroid hormone that is absorbed by your body. If you are taking any of these drugs, separate them from this medication by at least 4 hours.There are different brands of thyroid hormone available. Do not change brands without first consulting your doctor or pharmacist.Symptoms of low thyroid hormone levels include tiredness, muscle aches, constipation, dry skin, weight gain, slow heartbeat, or sensitivity to cold. Tell your doctor if your condition gets worse or lasts after several weeks of taking this medication.
SIDE EFFECTS: Hair loss may occur during the first few months of treatment. This effect is usually temporary as your body adjusts to this medication. If this effect lasts or gets worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.Remember that this medication has been prescribed because your doctor has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.Tell your doctor right away if any of these unlikely but serious effects of high thyroid hormone levels occur: increased sweating, sensitivity to heat, mental/mood changes (such as nervousness, mood swings), tiredness, diarrhea, shaking (tremor), headache, shortness of breath.Get medical help right away if any of these rare but serious effects of high thyroid hormone levels occur: chest pain, fast/pounding/irregular heartbeat, swelling hands/ankles/feet, seizures.A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, get medical help right away if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.In the US -Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or at www.fda.gov/medwatch.In Canada - Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to Health Canada at 1-866-234-2345.
PRECAUTIONS: Before taking thyroid hormone, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or to pork products; or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: increased thyroid hormones (thyrotoxicosis), decreased adrenal gland function, heart disease (such as coronary artery disease, irregular heartbeat), high blood pressure, diabetes.Before having surgery, tell your doctor or dentist about all the products you use (including prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal products).Older adults may be more sensitive to the side effects of this drug, especially chest pain, fast/pounding/irregular heartbeat.Current information shows that this drug may be used during pregnancy. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant because your dose may need to be adjusted.Thyroid hormone passes into breast milk but is unlikely to harm a nursing infant. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: See also How to Use Section.Drug interactions may change how your medications work or increase your risk for serious side effects. This document does not contain all possible drug interactions.
