What is Eltroxin?
Eltroxin is a brand of levothyroxine from ADVANZ Pharma. It is used to treat an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism).
The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped gland in your neck that secretes hormones which regulate various functions in your body.
Hypothyroidism occurs when your thyroid gland does not produce enough triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) hormones.
With Prescription Doctor's convenient online healthcare service, you can buy Eltroxin tablets from a UK regulated pharmacy. To begin your order, simply complete our short online medical questionnaire. If your order is approved before 3pm on a weekday, our pharmacy can dispatch Eltroxin to your door via a fast and discreet delivery the next day.
What Causes An Underactive Thyroid?
An underactive thyroid can be caused by autoimmune disorders such as Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. This disorder triggers an attack on your thyroid gland, damaging it and stopping it from producing enough thyroxine.
A tiny gland in the brain, known as the pituitary gland, releases thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). The pituitary gland signals the thyroid gland to release the thyroid hormone.
When you have a low level of thyroxine, your pituitary produces more TSH to try to produce more thyroxine. This combination of high TSH levels and low thyroxine levels indicate an underactive thyroid.
When there is a lack of thyroxine, your body's metabolism slows down, subsequently slowing down bodily processes and resulting in lower levels of energy.
The common symptoms of underactive thyroid include:
- Fatigue
- Sensitivity to cold
- Weight gain
- Constipation
- Dry/brittle skin, hair and nails.
A thyroid function blood test will be able to identify if you have an underactive thyroid. If the result is positive, you will need to start taking a daily hormone replacement tablet.
If you do not take the appropriate thyroid treatment, you may notice your symptoms worsen.
How Does Eltroxin Work?
Eltroxin contains a synthetic hormone called levothyroxine.
Levothyroxine replaces and replenishes the low levels of thyroxine your body naturally produces.
Your doctor will prescribe you a suitable dose of Eltroxin, however, you will need to undergo regular blood tests to monitor your thyroid levels.
How Do I Take Eltroxin?
The tablet is best taken 30 minutes before breakfast and should be swallowed with a glass of water.
As with any medication, it's important to always take the dose prescribed by your doctor. If you are unsure about the dose, check with your doctor before taking anything.
