How often should I see my doctor while taking EUTHYROX?
Thyroid levels should be checked regularly when using EUTHYROX. This is typically done every 6-12 months or more often if you are changing doses or experiencing symptom changes.
Levothyroxine, a synthetic hormone to treat hypothyroidism, has a potency that can be significantly affected by external factors such as light, oxygen, and moisture.
The consistency of each dose's potency is critical to ensure effective treatment. A lack of potency in levothyroxine can lead to persistent symptoms of hypothyroidism, including fatigue, hair thinning, constipation, muscle aches, weight gain, facial swelling, depression, memory issues, and elevated cholesterol levels. These symptoms can arise from incorrect dosing or the medication losing strength due to improper storage.
EUTHYROX comes in blister packaging, specifically designed to shield the medication from light, oxygen, maintaining its potency until consumption. In contrast, generic levothyroxine stored in traditional bottles may not provide the same level of protection, with studies indicating that its effectiveness can decline within 30 days.
EUTHYROX is made available at a competitive price point through Marley Drug, courtesy of an agreement with Provell Pharmaceuticals. This partnership aims to enhance access to medications at reduced costs by eliminating the need for intermediaries such as wholesalers and insurance companies, which often escalate prices.
