Commonly asked questions about Forthyron Tablets

What are Forthyron Tablets?
Forthyron Tablets are a prescription medication for dogs that contains the drug Levothyroxine Sodium. Forthyron is a replacement for the hormone T-4, which is naturally produced in the body by the thyroid gland to regulate metabolism and energy.

Why do cats and dogs use Forthyron?
When the body is unable to produce enough thyroid hormone on its own because of an imbalance, an enlarged thyroid gland, or other medical conditions and treatments, it is called hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism in dogs can be found with a blood test or by signs and symptoms involving metabolism, energy, nerve and muscle function, skin and haircoat. If your dog has been diagnosed with low thyroid hormone or hypothyroidism, your veterinarian may prescribe a Levothyroxine medication.

What else should I know about Forthyron?
Dogs taking Levothyroxine require much higher doses than humans. Doses for cats may be similar to doses for humans. Your veterinarian may need to perform regular blood tests to check the dose of Levothyroxine in the blood. These follow-ups are very important.

What problems could my dog or cat have with Forthyron?
Side effects from giving too much Levothyroxine include fast heart rate, greater appetite with weight loss, thirst, increased urination, excitability, or nervousness. Dogs may pant more. Cats may appear withdrawn, apathetic, or uncaring. Contact your veterinarian if you notice any of these signs.

How do you use Forthyron?
Forthyron can be given with or without food, but should be given in the same way every day to maintain a consistent level of Levothyroxine. Follow your veterinarian's directions.

What is in Forthyron?
The drug in Forthyron is Levothyroxine Sodium. Levothyroxine is a replacement for the hormone T-4, which is naturally produced in the body by the thyroid gland to regulate metabolism and energy.
