Don't. This medicine is only to treat cats who are hyperthyroid. It contains the thyroid blocker thiamazole, which is a relative of carbimazole that is used for hyperthyroidism in humans. Animal veterinary products are unsuitable for humans.
Wow - they do not make this clear, it is listed as though it were for humans. Phew I was tempted, many thanks indeed.
isn't that Thyronorm oral solution by Norbrook? There is an Abbott Thyronorm which is thyroxine sodium for people. Check the active ingredient .
Levo-thyroxine is the active ingredient listed and it is in tablet form. Maker - Abbott. Have also looked online and yes the same name is used for animals but in liquid form and much smaller dosage. I found other sites advertising it for human consumption. Wish i knew a vet who could maybe clear this up. Thank you for you input, much appreciated.
If it is an online pharmacy, it will be a generic HUMAN thyroxine sodium. Can't advise on how good it is as I don't take levo. Check fillers etc before ordering. I've seen it on a lot of sites but no idea what people think of it. The feline drug is related to carbi/methimazole for hyper and so wouldn't show thyroxine as an ingredient.
Gosh glad you posted and diogenes was able to advise! I hope the actual packaging makes it clear that it’s for our feline friends! Shows how careful with things we need to be so a good general message to us all!
