thyroid drugs
synthroid
side effect
-
-
-
tremors, feeling nervous or irritable
-
-
-
indication
thyroid medicine used to replaces a hormone normally produced by your thyroid gland to regulate the body's energy and metabolism
mechanism of action
is a thyroid hormone replacement medication, used in individuals with underactive thyroid gland, producing low amounts of the thyroid hormone
Thyroid hormones exert their physiologic actions through control of DNA transcription and protein synthesis. Triiodothyronine (T3) and L-thyroxine (T4) diffuse into the cell nucleus and bind to thyroid receptor proteins attached to DNA. This hormone nuclear receptor complex activates gene transcription and synthesis of messenger RNA and cytoplasmic proteins.

mechanism of action
Thyroid hormones exert their physiologic actions through control of DNA transcription and protein synthesis. Triiodothyronine and levothyroxine (T4) diffuse into the cell nucleus and bind to thyroid receptor proteins attached to DNA. This hormone nuclear receptor complex activates gene transcription and synthesis of messenger RNA and cytoplasmic proteins.
euthyrox
side effect

-
memory problems, feeling depressed or irritable

-
indication
is a replacement for a hormone normally produced by your thyroid gland to regulate the body's energy and metabolism
-
mechanism of action
The synthetic levothyroxine is identical in effect with the naturally occurring major hormone secreted by the thyroid. It is converted to T3 in peripheral organs and, like the endogenous hormone, develops its specific effects at the T3 receptors. The body is not able to differentiate between endogenous and exogenous levothyroxine
