What Is The Best Medication For Increased Thyroid Levels?
i was diagonised with Pulmanory TB in May this year and was on R-cinex 600mg, P-zide twice a day, Combutol for 3 months and after the x-ray and AFB tests only R-cinex since then
for more than a couple of months a lot of other probs finally took me to my gynae who found out i have Pelvic TB too. she advised Forecox twice a day, Cabgolin 0.5 once a week along with others for Thyroid and increased Prolactin that was detected now. i went to a General Physician for a second opinion and he advised R-cinex 600mg, Mycobutol 1200mg, Benadon 40mg apart from others. which should i follow

Thanks for asking.
few queries
Any associated weight gain/ hairloss/ tiredness/ constipation?
*Any history of recurrent fever / thyroid pain/ eye pain / bulging eye ball/ tiredness?
*Periods- is it regular?
*How is your quality of life?
*Any family history of thyroid disease/ goiter or thyroid malignancy?
any history of thigh or arm muscle weakness/ hump/striae?
TSH/free T4/ calcium /fasting lipid profile/ ALT
kindly msg your TSH ,T4 , prolactin values.
if your prolactin and thyroid levels are high thyroid disease should be treated first and then prolactin if persists as thyroid disease can increase prolactin.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help. Thankyou. Wish you good health
