Equithrox
Flavored Oral Thyroxine Supplement
Levothyroxine Sodium, USP
|
Equithrox is a palatable, readily
consumed thyroid supplement for managing cases of equine
hypothyroidism where thyroid replacement therapy is
indicated.
Many veterinarians prefer EQUITHROX
thyroid supplement as a source of Lthyroxine sodium due to
its apple and molasses flavored base. Competing products are
not flavored and therefore less likely to be consumed by the
horse. The dose of L-thyroxine sodium fed is the same per
administration as that of competitors but more EQUITHROX
will be eaten. This consistently results in higher serum
concentrations of total thyroxine (TT4). Many veterinarians
switched to EQUITHROX because
they observed both higher serum TT4 and a more rapid and
consistent clinical response.
Approximately 84 doses per pound.
