Liothyronine Sodium

Why is Liothyronine Sodium Used?

The body produces many types of hormones but Liothyronine Sodium is one that is man made as well. It is used to regulate the function of the thyroid glands so that a person has high levels of energy and to help with their metabolic rate. When the thyroid isn’t producing enough of it then havoc can take place in the body. That is when the man made version of the hormone will be given to help regulate things and get them back into balance.

Liothyronine Sodium Dosage and Usage Instructions

The dose of this medication depends on the type of thyroid problem that a person has and the severity of them. Typically a low dose of it will be prescribed to be taken on a daily basis. That dose may need to be increased over time to find the right balance of assistance that it can offer to the thyroid functionality.

To ensure that the use of Liothyronine Sodium is helping to regulate the thyroid your doctor will want to test your blood at regular intervals. It is very important to keep all appointments. It is very important to continue taking this medication even when you start to feel better. Many patients will need to take this or other medications to regulate thyroid problems for the remainder of their life.
