What is Armour Thyroid?
Armour Thyroid is a drug obtained naturally from porcine (pig) thyroid glands and contains both T3 and T4. In hypothyroidism, the thyroid gland produces lesser thyroid hormone, which is actually compensated through Armour Thyroid, a natural substance containing the thyroid hormones.
- People who have heart conditions like hypertension or coronary artery disease should proceed with caution.
- If you are pregnant or breastfeeding discuss it with your doctor, and they may prescribe it if the benefits outweigh the risk.
- Armour Thyroid should be used with caution in people with a history of osteoporosis because long-term use of thyroid hormones has been linked to bone loss.
Dosages and Strengths of Armour Thyroid
Armour Thyroid is given as a supplemental therapy in hypothyroidism patients
- Tablet in various dosage strengths, such as 300mg, 240mg, 180mg, 120mg, 90mg, 60mg, 30mg, and 15mg
Side Effects of Armour Thyroid

- Fever
- Changes in menstrual cycle
- Headache
- Hair loss
If you experience any serious side effects of Armour Thyroid such as increased sweating, mental or mood changes, persistent headaches or shortness of breath, immediately consult a doctor.
Contraindications and Precautions
- Armour Thyroid can interact with other medications such as salicylates like aspirin, insulin, blood thinners, birth control pills, and other oral diabetic medications, as well as medications containing iodine.
- Armour Thyroid should not be used by people allergic to its ingredients. Armour Thyroid is derived from pig thyroid glands, so people with pork allergies should not take it.
- Thyrotoxicosis (high levels of thyroid hormone) and other thyroid disorders are incompatible with Armour Thyroid treatment. Thyroid hormone replacement therapy may not be the best option in such cases.
- If you suffer from adrenal insufficiency or have problems with your adrenal glands, you should use Armour Thyroid with caution and under medical supervision, as thyroid hormone can lead to a further decrease in hormone levels.
- Patients who have diabetes taking Armour Thyroid may need to adjust their diabetes treatment due to the possible effect of thyroid hormones on blood glucose levels.
