Product Overview
Thyromed 25mcg Tablet is used to treat hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), a condition where the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones. This medication helps replace the missing thyroid hormone and helps regulate your body’s metabolism and energy levels.
Salt Composition / Key Ingredient
- Thyroxine (25 mcg): A synthetic form of the thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4), which is normally produced by the thyroid gland. Thyroxine plays a critical role in regulating the body’s metabolism, energy production, and overall growth and development.
How to Use Thyromed 25mcg Tablet
- Dosage: Take Thyromed exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage will depend on your individual needs and may be adjusted based on blood tests.
- Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not chew, crush, or break it.
- Timing: Thyromed should be taken on an empty stomach, ideally before your first meal of the day, for the best absorption.
- Consistency: Take the medicine regularly to maintain consistent thyroid hormone levels and to get the most benefit. Missing doses may lead to a recurrence of symptoms.
How Thyromed Tablet Works
Thyromed 25mcg Tablet contains thyroxine, a synthetic version of the hormone normally produced by the thyroid gland. It works by:
- Replacing missing thyroid hormones: In individuals with hypothyroidism, the thyroid gland does not produce enough hormones (mainly thyroxine), leading to symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and depression.
- Regulating metabolism and energy: By increasing thyroid hormone levels, Thyromed helps regulate your body’s metabolism, improving energy levels and reducing symptoms of hypothyroidism.

- Restores Hormonal Balance: By providing the necessary thyroid hormone, it restores hormonal balance in the body and helps regulate metabolic functions.
- Long-term Medication: For most people with hypothyroidism, Thyromed is a lifelong treatment and must be continued to keep symptoms under control.
