What dosages is liothyronine available in?
liothyronine is available as a 5 mcg, 25 mcg, and 50 mcg oral tablet.
What is liothyronine used for?
liothyronine is a triiodothyronine (T3) used for hypothyroidism, thyroid cancer (with radiation and surgery), and as a thyroid suppression test.
How does liothyronine work?
liothyronine is a synthetic version of the T3 thyroid hormone made by your thyroid gland. Thyroid hormones have important functions like controlling metabolism, body temperature, heart rate, and more. When the amount of hormone is too low, taking thyroid replacement hormones can bring your levels back to normal.
