Liothyronine: instructions for use

Liothyronine sodium is prescribed to patients suffering from hypothyroidism, a condition in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone. Since this hormone is important in the regulation of metabolism and energy metabolism in the body, low levels of this hormone can lead to weight gain, hair loss, sensitivity to cold and other manifestations.

• hypothyroidism (primary, secondary);
• myxedema;
• cretinism;
• cerebrohypophyseal diseases with hypothyroidism;
• hypothyroid obesity;

It is best to take the drug at the same time every day to keep the thyroid hormone levels unchanged. 

Intravenous. Hypothyroidism: 25 mcg/day, the dose may be increased by 25 mcg every 1-2 weeks; the maintenance dose is 25-75 mcg.

Myxedema: the initial dose is 5 micrograms per day and the dose is increased every 1-2 weeks by 5-10 micrograms; when the dose reaches 25 micrograms per day, the further increase is made by 5-25 micrograms per day every 1-2 weeks; the maintenance dose is 50-100 micrograms per day.

Nontoxic goiter: the initial dose (5 mcg/day) is increased by 5-10 mcg every 1-2 weeks; the maintenance dose is usually 75 mcg/day.

Cretinism: initial dose is 5 mcg/day, then the dose is increased by 5 mcg/day at 3-4 day intervals until effect is achieved. Suppressive test with T3: 75-100 mcg/day for 7 days, then the test is repeated. In children and the elderly, the initial dose is 5 mcg/day, then it is gradually increased by 5 mcg/day.

Liothyronine: weight loss

Liothyronine tablets are a preparation based on a hormone produced by the thyroid gland. Quite often, athletes use Liothyronine to burn fat. Supplementation with T3 increases its content in the blood, which significantly accelerates the fat burning process and can also lead to faster synthesis of growth hormone and increase anabolic levels.

The main effects of the drug:

• Acceleration of metabolism.
• The rapid absorption of nutrients and minerals.
• Overweight is reduced faster.
• Reduces the amount of subcutaneous fat.
• Improves the function of the cardiovascular system.
• While taking this drug, the athlete is in a good mood.
• Self-confidence.
• Muscle tissues become thicker and stiffer.
• The relief of the body becomes more pronounced.
• Stamina and strength increase to a greater extent.
• Performance increases. 

Liothyronine is effective as a fat-burning agent, but you should be very careful with its dosage. Side effects may occur if the dose is significantly exceeded. If you follow all the recommendations, then the drug is perfectly safe, and at the same time very effective. Before you buy Liothyronine online, carefully read the instructions for the drug.

Liothyronine interactions

Liothyronine interacts with the following drugs:

1. Hypoglycemic drugs reduces the effect.

2. Liothyronine increases the effect of indirect anticoagulants, vasoconstrictors.

3. Colestiramine reduces the absorption of Liothyronine.

4. Oral contraceptives reduce the effect of Liothyronine.

5. Phenytoin, Salicylates, Dicumarol, Furosemide (in high doses), Clofibrate, antidepressants, cardiac glycosides, Ketamine increase the concentration and risk of Liothironin side effects.

Certain medications may decrease the degree of absorption of Liothyronine. These include drugs containing aluminum or magnesium, antacids, sucralfates, calcium supplements, iron, bile acid binding resins (e.g., Cholestyramine, Colestipol, Colesevelam), Simethicone, Severalmer, Sodium Polystyrene Sulfonate, and other substances. If you are taking such medications, take them at least 4 hours before or 4 hours after taking Liothyronine.

Does Liothyronine cause weight gain?

T3 (Liothyronine) is the main thyroid hormone that regulates energy and plastic metabolism in the body. Its decrease leads to weight gain, dry skin and increased hunger.

Liothyronine and alcohol

Alcohol while taking thyroid hormones is inadmissible. Such a combination gives a heavy load on the endocrine system.

At best, the effect of the hormonal medication will decrease. As a result, the entire therapy would be useless, and the process of eliminating alcohol from the body would fall completely on the liver and kidneys.

In more complicated situations, mixing hormonal pharmacological agents with alcohol can provoke an aggravation of ulcers, cramps, thrombophlebitis, and severe headaches.
