Synthroid 

Synthroid is a hormone replacement medicine that helps the body to compensate thyroid hormone that is normally produced in a thyroid gland.

It is mainly used for balancing energy and leveling metabolic processes in the human body. Thyroid hormones are important components of protein, fat, and carbohydrates metabolism. They also affect the body’s growth and development.

Levothyroxine (Synthroid) is prescribed when the body does not produce enough hormone causing thyroid deficiency. Individuals affected by the conditions experience such symptoms as fatigue, increased sensitivity to cold temperatures, slow speech, abnormal or rapid weight gain, puffy face, dryness of the skin.

Synthroid is mainly used to treat this deficiency condition of the thyroid gland (hypothyroidism). Hypothyroidism is a characteristic of decreased body energy levels and low metabolic activity. The medication may also be used to prevent enlargement of the thyroid gland.
