Because every pet reacts differently to this medication, your veterinarian may monitor thyroid hormone levels in the blood every 2-4 weeks while adjusting the dose. Periodic testing is also necessary while the pet is taking Thyro-Tabs.
It generally takes several weeks of therapy to see an effect. In almost all cases, the pet will need to be on a thyroid supplement such as Thyro-Tabs for life.
Not for use in animals hypersensitive (allergic) to it. Use with extreme caution in older or debilitated animals, or those with heart disease, high blood pressure, Addison's disease (hypoadrenocorticism), or diabetes.
Do not use in animals with hyperthyroidism, a condition in which the body produces too much thyroid hormone.
There are no known side effects when given at correct dosage.
If your pet experiences an allergic reaction to the medication, signs may include facial swelling, hives, scratching, sudden onset of diarrhea, vomiting, shock, seizures, pale gums, cold limbs, or coma. If you observe any of these signs, contact your veterinarian immediately.
Store at room temperature in a tight, light-resistant, childproof container. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
With chronic overdosing (taking a slightly higher dose over a long period of time), expect to see signs of hyperthyroidism such as an increase in drinking, urinating, eating, activity; seeking cool areas; increased heart rate; panting; restlessness; and behavior changes. You may also see vomiting.
If you know or suspect your pet has had an overdose, or if you observe any of the above signs in your pet, contact your veterinarian immediately.
Consult with your veterinarian before using this medication with any other medications, including vitamins and supplements, epinephrine, norepinephrine, insulin, estrogens, warfarin, or digoxin, since interactions may occur.
No known food interactions.

can I give my 5 month old puppy augmentin 875mg tabs or bactrim if I think she has parvo it is my percriorion
Rey has some allergies now that spring is coming around, she already has some skin allergies that bother her year round (she's been on Prednisone and Benadryl a few times for allergies when her face gets puffy) so we were wondering if we could give her Loratadine 10mg tabs and what the dosage would be (she's about 12 pounds) to see if it helps her as the seasons change. She has no other issues other than allergies
My 17 yr old cat has been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. she was started on Methimazole chew treats and now refuses to eat them. I switched to the twist a dose ear Methimazole but if I give that to her daily like the vet suggested, all she does is sleep day and night. It seems to knock her out right after I apply it to her ear. then she starts vomiting her food. I am beginning to think we would be better off going with the radioactive iodine thing. what do you think?
My baby girl takes thyroid meds twice a day. She has extremely dry skin. Very flaky. I have tried numerous dog foods and I give her omega vitamins every day to no avail!!!! Help. :(
Can thyroid cause hair loss in an old mini-poodle?
My dog has been diagnosed with thyroid issue and they put her on meds for it. She had been responding well to the medication at first but all of a sudden she is super high anxiety and she acts like she wants to go to bathroom but she stops to sit down every few steps and whines like she's trying to do the boot scoot but doesn't know how. She seems to calm down when I'm right there consoling her but if I get up to do anything she really freaks out.
Hi. I adopted a cat three days ago which is 1.5 years old. She is so active and friendly and too thin too. It has been eating so much_about five meals a day which is a 6 oz can. It is breathing so fast and I am afraid it has hyperthyriodic disorder. Apart from this Loli is quite normal and so lovely cat. BTW. It has given birth recently and was nursing. Thanks for your time and help.
I have 3 cats. One has hyperthyroidism and is on food for it from the vet. I'm having a hard time keeping them out of each others food. I'd like to know if it's ok for me to just switch to the thyroid food and feed it to all 3 or will it have adverse affects on the 2 cats that do not have hyperthyroidism?
I have a 12 that was diagnosed with the hyperthyroidism a month ago tha he seemed better for about two weeks and then he started throwing up again & not wanting to eat so I went back to the vet and he now has pancreatitis too! The doctor said I should change his food and I bought some of the other food but he won't eat it so I gave him the other food he ste very little & he is very lethargic, pupils are dilated should I stop giving him the methimazole? He is usually very playful
HI, My 13yr old female cat is on Transdermal Methimazole, 5mg, 2x day, by syringe. However, my cat won't let me near her to apply this to her ear!!! I now have broken the trust
M my 10 year old golden retriever was diagnosed with Cushing’s disease about five years ago. He’s been on medicine for that disease since then. His weight was stable at 34 kg and over the past month or so we have noticed that he lost additional weight. He’s now at 32 kg. The doctor has done some bloodwork and has determined that the medicine for the Cushing’s disease is too much because he has an under active thyroid now. Which has me concerned
