Synthetic T4 (thyroxine); peripherally deiodinated to T3 (triiodothyronine), the active hormone. '"`UNIQ--vote-00000031-QINU`"' Narrow therapeutic index; brand-to-generic switches can shift TSH and require re-titration'"`UNIQ--ref-00000032-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000032-QINU`"' Brand-to-brand and lot-to-lot variability in T3:T4 ratio is greater than with synthetic levothyroxine, which is why endocrine guidelines prefer the synthetic'"`UNIQ--ref-00000033-QINU`"'. (1)
uses:
starting dose:
None (16) ·
1.6 mcg/kg/d in young healthy adults; 25-50 mcg/d in elderly or cardiac disease, titrated by TSH at 6-8 weeks (1) ·
30 mg PO daily (1/2 grain); titrate by TSH at 6-8 weeks; 60 mg desiccated thyroid is approximately equivalent to 88-100 mcg levothyroxine (1) ·
Hypothyroidism: 5-25 mcg PO daily (start low, titrate slowly); myxedema coma: 5-20 mcg IV q4-12h with T4 loading (1)

First-line in pregnancy; dose typically increased 25-30% due to estrogen-driven rise in TBG and fetal demand. Lactation safe at physiologic doses.<sup class="pcp-cn" title="This claim needs a citation.">[[[Pharmacopedia:Citation needed|citation needed]]]</sup> (1) ·
Synthetic levothyroxine is the standard-of-care in pregnancy; desiccated thyroid use in pregnancy is not well studied<sup class="pcp-cn" title="This claim needs a citation.">[[[Pharmacopedia:Citation needed|citation needed]]]</sup> (1) ·
T4 (levothyroxine) is the first-line in pregnancy; T3 is rarely needed.<sup class="pcp-cn" title="This claim needs a citation.">[[[Pharmacopedia:Citation needed|citation needed]]]</sup> (1)
