Synthroid is a replacement for a hormone that is normally produced by the thyroid gland to regulate the body's energy and metabolism. Synthroid, the most-prescribed thyroid medication for the past 42 years, is given when the thyroid does not produce enough of this hormone on its own.
The drug also could help decrease the size of enlarged thyroid glands (known as goiter) and to treat thyroid cancer.
In rare cases, side effects emerge, including severe headache in children, skin rash or hives.
If you have taken any drug with serious side effects, an attorney at the Law Offices of Jeff Martin can talk to you about product liability or any other legal issues related to your injury.

The statute of limitations restricts the amount of time you have to file a lawsuit. Your legal rights may be in jeopardy if you delay. You may be entitled to compensation, but a dangerous drugs lawsuit must be filed before the statute of limitations expires. It's important to take action sooner than later while witnesses' memories are fresh and evidence remains intact.
