Result of checking the interaction of drug Nature-Throid NT-2 and disease Adrenal insufficiency for safety when used together.
When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.
Consumer:The use of thyroid hormones is contraindicated in patients with uncorrected adrenal insufficiency. Thyroid hormones increase tissue demand for adrenocortical hormones and may precipitate acute adrenal crisis. In patients with controlled adrenal insufficiency or other endocrine disorders, therapy for these concomitant disorders may need to be adjusted following thyroid replacement, since hypothyroidism often obscure or diminish the signs and symptoms of these conditions. Clinical monitoring of thyroid and adrenal function as well as any other appropriate endocrine function is recommended during thyroid hormone therapy.
