How Thyro-Tab Works
Levothyroxine is a synthetic form of T4 (thyroxine), the primary hormone produced by the thyroid gland. Once absorbed, it is converted to T3 (triiodothyronine) in the body's tissues, restoring normal metabolic function. Given twice daily in most dogs, it replaces the hormone the thyroid gland can no longer produce adequately.
