Comparison of tablet versus liquid ethanol-free Levothyroxine in thyroidectomised patients
In patients with post-surgical hypothyroidism, L-EF-LT4 demonstrated equivalent therapeutic efficacy to T-LT4 in terms of dose requirement and TSH control. These findings support the use of L-EF-LT4 as a viable alternative to tablet LT4, particularly in clinical scenarios where flexible timing of ingestion may improve patient compliance.
