Thyrofit 25 mcg Tablet 120s belongs to ‘thyroid agents’, primarily used to treat underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism). Hypothyroidism is a chronic disorder, which happens when the thyroid gland (located in the front lower part of the neck), becomes unable to make enough thyroid hormone. The thyroid gland is responsible for releasing hormones, composed are composed of tri-iodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4), which helps the body to regulate and use energy. The thyroid controls functions of the heart and digestive system; without the right amount of these hormones, the body becomes unable to function properly. Early symptoms of this disease are fatigue and weight gain. While other symptoms include feeling cold even in warm weather, dry skin or too much or too few menses (in women), easy fatigueness, constipation, weight gain, or even lack of energy. Right diagnosis and treatment of hypothyroid are important to restore normal physical and mental activity.
