Jeproxin-100
Description_Effects
Jeproxin-100 contains Thyroxine Sodium 100 mcg, a synthetic form of the thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4). It is prescribed for the treatment of hypothyroidism, a condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone to meet the body’s needs. This deficiency can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, cold intolerance, constipation, dry skin, and slowed metabolism. Thyroxine is essential for maintaining normal growth, brain development, metabolism, and energy levels. Jeproxin-100 works by restoring the adequate levels of thyroid hormone in the body, helping to normalize metabolic functions and relieve the symptoms of hypothyroidism. This medication is usually taken once daily on an empty stomach, ideally in the morning, at least 30–60 minutes before eating. The dosage may vary depending on the patient's age, weight, and severity of thyroid hormone deficiency, and should be adjusted based on regular thyroid function tests (TSH levels). It is important to take Jeproxin-100 consistently as prescribed and to avoid stopping or changing the dose without consulting a doctor, as improper use can lead to serious health problems including heart issues or bone loss. With proper monitoring and regular use, Jeproxin-100 helps maintain healthy thyroid function and overall well-being.
