Introduction

THYRORISE 62.5 contains Thyroxine Sodium 62.5 mcg, a synthetic version of the natural thyroid hormone Levothyroxine (T4). This intermediate dose is used in patients requiring fine titration of their thyroid hormone levels, especially when transitioning between standard doses (e.g., from 50 mcg to 75 mcg).
