Only 2 all-natural inactive ingredients:
- Inulin (from chicory root)
- Medium Chain Triglycerides (from coconut)
T4 & T3 replacement hormones (desiccated porcine thyroid)
Thyroid cofactors (T1, T2, calcitonin and iodine) naturally occur in trace amounts

How to Use WP Thyroid?

Take WP Thyroid in the morning on an empty stomach 30-60 minutes prior to food or caffeine with an 8oz glass of water unless otherwise instructed by your physician.

If you've already eaten, this medication can be taken two hours after consumption with an 8oz glass of water, after which you must wait 30-60 minutes before again consuming food or caffeine.

Some medications and supplements may lower the effectiveness of WP Thyroid when taken simultaneously, so it is important to take WP Thyroid at least one hour before any other medication. Calcium supplements, iron products, or antacids need to be taken four hours apart.

Some foods may cause your body to absorb less WP Thyroid including walnuts, infant soy formula, cottonseed meal, and high-fiber foods. Talk to your doctor about adjusting your dose if you consume these foods.

Keep out of reach of pets and children.

WP Thyroid Ingredients

WP Thyroid is formulated with the following ingredients:

Active Ingredient:

Thyroid USP* (desiccated porcine thyroid)
*Lactose Monohydrate (Lactose is not added to our formula but it is already present in Thyroid USP raw material as a diluent per USP (United States Pharmacopeia). Lactose is not contraindicated for individuals with allergies to dairy, as lactose is a milk sugar (vs. dairy allergies, which are caused by proteins in milk). It is, however, contraindicated for individuals with lactose intolerance. We have had many physicians reporting no side effects while using Nature-Throid with lactose intolerant patients. The amount is very small – less than 5 mg. per 1 Grain vs. 12,000 – 15,000 mg. in a typical 8 fl. oz. glass of milk.)

Inactive Ingredients:

Inulin
Medium Chain Triglycerides

You’re pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding.
You are taking any other prescription or over-the-counter medications, or if you start or stop any medications while on WP Thyroid® and Nature-Throid®.
You suffer from any medical conditions other than hypothyroidism, particularly heart disease, clotting disorders, or adrenal or pituitary gland problems.
You have diabetes. Monitor your blood and/or urinary glucose levels as directed by your doctor and immediately report any changes.
You’re taking anticoagulants (blood thinners).
Let your dentist know you are taking WP Thyroid® and Nature-Throid® before any surgery.
You experience any of the following symptoms: rapid or irregular heartbeat, chest pain, shortness of breath, leg cramps, headache, nervousness, irritability, sleeplessness, tremors, change in appetite, weight gain or loss, vomiting, diarrhea, excessive sweating, heat intolerance, fever, changes in menstrual periods, hives, skin rash or any other unusual medical event.

Warnings: Don’t Take For

Do not take WP Thyroid® and Nature-Throid® either alone or in combination with other medicines, for the treatment of obesity or weight loss. In patients with normal thyroid levels, doses of WP Thyroid® and Nature-Throid® within the typical range used for hormone replacement are not effective for weight loss. Larger doses may result in serious or even life-threatening effects, especially when used in combination with certain other drugs used to reduce appetite.
Do not take WP Thyroid® and Nature-Throid® for male or female infertility unless it is associated with hypothyroidism.
Do not take WP Thyroid® and Nature-Throid® if you have hyperthyroidism or are allergic to any of its ingredients.

Use WP Thyroid® and Nature-Throid® exactly as prescribed. Unless otherwise directed by your doctor, do not stop taking either medication or alter how often it’s taken. Many factors can contribute to the length of time symptoms are alleviated, though generally people feel an improvement within a few weeks. For some, though, improvement in symptoms may take up to three months. Your doctor will determine which dose is right for you. If any life changes or new symptoms occur, consult your doctor to adjust your dose. Continue to see your doctor until your dosage levels prove stable based on your lab work, then continue to see your doctor at their request. Thyroid replacement therapy is usually taken for life.
