WASHINGTON (WJLA) - A prescription drug manufacturer has sued several health care providers for their prescribing of a potentially dangerous drug to treat an underactive thyroid gland. The suit was filed Wednesday against a Walgreens drugstore chain that manufactures an over-the-counter version of the thyroid medication levothyroxine.
The suit, filed in federal court in Washington, states that its makers, Ayergan, Inc., and Teva Pharmaceuticals Inc., were liable under the False Claims Act for their overprescribing of the drug.
In the lawsuit, the complaint states that, when consumers, the health care providers prescribed the drug, the drug was "intensely unsafe" and that, while the drug may not be dangerous, consumers were not properly warned and the doctors did not use it as a treatment for a heart attack, a stroke or another medical condition.
Levothyroxine was first approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States in 1967. It is a synthetic hormone that is found in thyroid glands, and it is used to treat hypothyroidism, a condition in which the thyroid gland is not active enough to make thyroid hormone. The FDA required that patients be under age 18 or underactive in thyroid hormone treatment, but the drug was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1996 and by the end of 1997, the label switched to a more aggressive label. The warning label switched the drug to a generic version called Synthroid.
Levothyroxine is a synthetic hormone produced by the thyroid gland that is used to treat hypothyroidism. It is also used to treat and prevent hypothyroidism. The drug is usually taken once a day by a person who is not taking medication for any other condition.
Ayergan, which makes the over-the-counter version of the drug, claims that the company failed to adequately warn consumers about the danger of taking the drug.
Ayergan, which is based in West enough to be the biggest manufacturer in the country, claims that its employees took the drug during the "typical" treatment period, a routine practice. The FDA approved the drug in 2007 to treat hypothyroidism, a condition in which the thyroid gland does not make enough thyroid hormone.
The complaint states that, in 2011, Ayergan, its employees and the FDA had a "black box" warning for the drug, "allergic to levothyroxine," and were required to provide a "black box" warning for the drug to the FDA. The company failed to provide this warning about the drug, and it also failed to adequately warn consumers about the drug's risks.
Ayergan, which makes the over-the-counter version of the drug, claims that the company failed to adequately warn consumers about the danger of taking the drug, and it also failed to provide this warning about the drug's risks.
The lawsuit alleges that Ayergan knew, or should have known, that the drug was dangerous and should have provided a "black box" warning to the FDA to warn the public about the danger of taking the drug.

The lawsuit says that the company failed to adequately warn consumers of the danger of taking the drug, and that it failed to provide the warning to the FDA.
Ayergan, which makes the over-the-counter version of the drug, claims that the company failed to provide the warning, in part, because the company did not include in the FDA's drug labeling information the risk of taking the drug. The company also failed to provide the warning about the drug's risks.
Levothyroxine, commonly known by the brand name Synthroid, is a synthetic form of the thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4). It is widely used to treat hypothyroidism, a condition where the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones.
The global levothyroxine market has been experiencing steady growth, driven by the increasing prevalence of thyroid disorders. Here are some key statistics:
The most significant segmentation is that of North America, with the region being a major driver. The levothyroxine market is segmented by type of thyroid hormone, with the most recent growth data due to 2023. Type 1 stands between hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's thyroiditis[1].

There is evidence that thyroid medications can increase thyroid hormone levels. In fact, there is a small amount of research that suggests that an individual may experience a decrease in thyroid hormone levels if they are taking a medication that also has the same side effects as levothyroxine and Synthroid.
However, the effects of thyroid medications on blood sugar levels are not well understood. Some studies have suggested that these effects can be associated with taking a medication that also has the same side effects as levothyroxine and Synthroid. However, more research is needed to determine whether these effects are due to medications or a combination of these two types of thyroid medication.
In addition, the most common treatment for thyroid medication is replacement therapy. A medication that has a long half-life and is taken for a longer period of time than a thyroid medication that has a short half-life and is taken for a longer period of time than a levothyroxine treatment and a Synthroid treatment. This may explain why the average daily dose of thyroid medication ranges from 4 to 16 mcg and may have other side effects that are not as common as those seen in the medication class. In fact, in a recent study published in the British Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, researchers found that patients taking a combination of thyroid medication and a medication that also has the same side effects as levothyroxine and Synthroid experienced similar increases in thyroid hormone levels.
This suggests that the combination of these two medications may not be safe for people with thyroid disease. The medications in these studies were levothyroxine and Synthroid and the researchers also looked at levothyroxine and Synthroid doses, which were taken once a day.
Other factors that may have contributed to the higher levels of thyroid hormones in some people taking a combination of levothyroxine and Synthroid may also be associated with taking a medication that has a long half-life and is taken for a longer time than a thyroid medication.
Synthroid (levothyroxine) is a brand name for the synthetic version of the thyroid hormone thyroxine. It is used to treat certain conditions that are associated with low thyroid hormone levels, including hypothyroidism, a form of thyroid disease that can lead to fatigue, depression, and weight gain. The thyroid is a small gland in the upper part of the body that is found in your neck. When your thyroid gland doesn't produce enough thyroid hormone, it may make you feel sluggish and unwell. This is known as hypothyroidism. Thyroid hormone levels are measured by your doctor when you first start taking Synthroid, and it usually starts to decrease after a few days. Your doctor may also prescribe an anti-androgen medication for you to treat your thyroid symptoms.

There are many different brands of levothyroxine that are used to treat your thyroid disease, and there are many different levothyroxine options that can be used in conjunction with Synthroid.

I got this question from a new user who has been taking Levothyroxine Synthroid for more than 2 years and now he has no side effects.
This question was posted on the following day, and it was asked by my wife. We have not had any side effects so far, so what should I do?
I have been taking this for over a year now and my thyroid is still underactive. I started on the Synthroid when I was young and I noticed my Thyroid and blood test went negative on 12/12/19.
I did have to switch to levothyroxine in early 2000. The reason I have not been switched is because the manufacturer of the drug changed my label to warn about the increased risk of thyroid cancer in women, and that was in addition to the risk of cancer of the thyroid. It is a fact that there is a greater than 1 in 1000 risk of thyroid cancer than the risk of cancer of the thyroid.
There is a risk of thyroid cancer of the thyroid. I just have to find a way to avoid the risk. I have been on levothyroxine for over a year and my thyroid is still underactive. I have not had any side effects so far, so what should I do?
This was also a question I had before we discussed it and it was asked again. It was about a year ago, and I started to feel the same way. My Thyroid and blood test is still showing the same test, so I am not worried that the thyroid cancer is getting worse. I am fine with that. What can I do?

I have been on levothyroxine for over a year and my Thyroid is still underactive.
Thanks for your response!
DianaMy Thyroid is still underactive. I am not sure if it is still working. The TSH and LH levels have been rising but the T-Horny Thyroid and blood test are still not showing the same amount of thyroid.I started on levothyroxine in early 2000.
