Medical Description
Methirox tablet is used to treat an overactive thyroid gland, a condition in which the thyroid makes more hormone than the body needs. It contains methimazole, which slows the thyroid gland's production of new thyroid hormones. As hormone levels improve, symptoms such as a fast heartbeat, sweating, shaking and unplanned weight loss may ease. Methirox tablet is taken by mouth and requires medical follow-up with thyroid blood tests.
