Why use VetOne Thyro-Tabs Canine, 120 ct?

This drug is a replacement treatment, meaning it works to balance this hormone and improve physical and mental well-being.
How does VetOne Thyro-Tabs Canine, 120 ct work?
For dogs with hypothyroidism, this medicine is a veterinarian-recommended replacement treatment option. It includes T4, or sodium salt of synthetic tetraiodothyronine. T4 is a synthetic thyroid hormone that is identical to the thyroid hormone generated naturally by dogs. Thyro-Tabs Canine is an effective treatment for dogs with hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid disease) because of this helpful component.

What special precautions are there?
It has not been determined whether or not this product is safe to use in breeding, pregnant, or lactating dogs. Close monitoring is required for dogs with heart illness and hypothyroidism while a correct dosage is determined. Based on the dog's specific clinical response, your veterinarian may need to change the dog's cardiac medicine or levothyroxine sodium dosage. If inadvertently ingested, get medical help right away. Make a copy of the product label to give to your doctor. After each treatment, carefully wash your hands. Excess thyroid hormone exposure in utero has resulted in morphological thyroid gland abnormalities and hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis dysfunction in humans and rodents. Do not give to dogs that have thyrotoxicosis or adrenal insufficiency that isn't under control. Keep out of the reach of children.
What to do if overdose?
In case of overdose, seek treatment at the closest emergency pet hospital.
