WARNING: Thyroid hormones, including Levoxyl^®, either alone or together with other therapeutic agents, should not be used for the treatment of obesity or for weight loss. In patients with a normal functioning thyroid gland, doses within the range of daily hormonal requirements are ineffective for weight reduction. Larger doses may provide serious or even life-threatening manifestations of toxicity, particularly when given in association with sympathomimetic based weight loss drugs.

Levoxyl^® is indicated for thyroid hormone replacement or supplemental therapy for hypothyroidism. Levoxyl^® is contraindicated in patients with untreated thyrotoxicosis, acute myocardial infarction, uncorrected adrenal insufficiency, or hypersensitivity to any of its inactive ingredients. Levoxyl^® is protected by U.S. Patent Number 6,555,581

Adverse reactions are primarily those of hyperthyroidism due to therapeutic overdose. Use with caution in patients with cardiovascular disease.
