Iodide hormone suppressed

Levothyroxine is taken orally or intravenously and is normally prescribed to treat hypothyroidism or to suppress the release of thyroid hormone so as to manage cancerous thyroid nodules (i.e., thyroid cancer) and growth of goiters. Other less frequently prescribed thyroid and parathyroid drugs include methimazole (Tapazole), various iodides, lithioronine (Triostat), and liotrix (Thyrolar).
