Question: what is difference between levothyroxine and levothyroxine sodium?
Answer: Levothyroxine Sodium is the sodium salt of levothyroxine, a synthetic levoisomer of thyroxine (T4) that is similar to the endogenous hormone produced by the thyroid gland. In peripheral tissues, levothyroxine is deiodinated by 5'-deiodinase to form triiodothyronine (T3).
