Treatment for hypothyroidism involves taking thyroid hormone pills every day. After you take the pills for about 6 weeks, you might need to recheck your thyroid hormone levels to make sure the levels are where they should be.
The doctor, might adjust your dose depending on the results. Most people with hypothyroidism need to be on thyroid pills for the rest of their life.
Thyroid hormone pills come in different brand name and generic forms. All the pills work equally well. But you should not switch from one generic or brand name to another. Switching between pills can cause your levels to go up and down.
Never change your dose of thyroid hormone on your own. Taking too much thyroid hormone can cause heart rhythm problems and even damage your bones.
