default
Posted on Tue, 16 Aug 2016
Question: Hi, Its related to previous thread.

Yes, I am to open all your answers. It will really help me.

May I give you trade names of this combination? - Yes, please.
You are taking 200micrograms of thyronorm. This is considered as high dose.
May I ask you few more questions about thyroid? - Yes.

Initially, I started with 100 MG to thyronorm. Initially, TSH was at 60. As per latest report TSH is close to 88 (its too high as compared to normal range). That's why he increased the does. He is saying, dose will be lowered as soon as TSH gets down. Even, I have doubt on that as T3, T4, FT3 and FT4 is in normal range. I consulted it with couple of doctor, all of them have the same consent to go with thyronorm to deal with hypothyroidism.

Have you undergone any other thyroid test?

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your direct follow up question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Here are trade names.
1. Pantocid L
2. Veloz L
3. Esomac L
You will get any of them in medical store.
And this is strange. T3, T4, free T3 and free T4 are normal and TSH is increasing despite of taking thyronorm.
Have you get done any other thyroid report?
