Indications for use

Thyro-Tabs Canine is for replacement therapy for diminished thyroid function in dogs.

Administration and dosage

• The initial daily dose of Thyro-Tabs Canine is 0.1 mg/10 pounds (0.01 mg/lb; 0.022 mg/kg) body weight as a single dose every 24 hours or as a divided dose every 12 hours.

• The dose may then be adjusted by monitoring the serum total thyroxine (TT4) concentrations 4 to 6 hours post-tablet administration, along with clinical response, of the dog every 4 to 8 weeks until an adequate maintenance dose is established.

• Due to potential differences in bioavailability, monitor serum TT4 concentrations and clinical response when switching from another levothyroxine sodium formulation to Thyro-Tabs Canine.

• To minimize day-to-day variations in serum TT4 concentrations, owners should consistently administer Thyro-Tabs Canine either with or without food.
