Synthroid tablets 100mcg are used to treat hypothyroidism or underactive thyroid, a condition in which the thyroid gland does not make enough thyroid hormone (thyroxine) needed to regulate your body’s growth and metabolism. Hypothyroidism can be idiopathic (of unknown cause) or congenital as in the case of the autoimmune disease Hashimoto's thyroiditis, where the thyroid gland is destroyed by the immune system; it can also be the result of thyroid surgery. Synthroid tablets 100mcg are also used to treat thyroid goitre, which is an enlarged thyroid gland caused by extreme growth of thyroid tissue to compensate for lack of thyroid hormone; also to treat thyroid cancer. Synthroid tablets 100mcg are a replacement hormone to relieve the symptoms of hypothyroidism, including, tiredness, muscle weakness, cramps, feeling the cold, a slow heart rate, dry and flaky skin, hair loss, a deep husky voice and weight gain.

The thyroid is a small gland at the base of your neck that produces hormones to regulate your body's energy use. Hypothyroidism is a condition when your thyroid gland doesn't produce enough of these thyroid hormones. The lack of hormones causes a slowdown in your body processes. Hypothyroidism is treatable in most people with thyroid hormone replacement medication and lifestyle modifications.
The thyroid gland produces two hormones: thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). The job of thyroid hormone replacement medication is to replace these missing hormones. Thyroid replacement medication comes in synthetic T4 and T3 formulations, as well as that combines both hormones.
In a healthy thyroid gland, the inactive T4 hormone is released into circulation and then converted by the body into the active T3 hormone. Often, prescription medicine for thyroid hormone replacement starts with synthetic T4 – known as levothyroxine – assuming that the body can successfully convert T4 into T3 on its own.
Levothyroxine is available commercially in several forms:
