Eltroxin 100 mcg is a replacement therapy that replaces the thyroxine hormone that your thyroid gland cannot produce and treat the symptoms of hypothyroidism. It contains Levothyroxine which is a synthetic version of this hormone. Thyroxine controls how much energy your body uses, and when the thyroid gland does not produce enough hormone, many of the body’s function slows down. This condition is often referred to as hypothyroidism; some of the common symptoms of the condition include feeling depressed, weight gain, and tiredness. Before starting the treatment, your doctor will conduct a blood test to determine how much Levothyroxine you need.

These side effects are usually disappeared after dose adjustments or discontinue treatment.
