Frequently Asked Questions about Hypothyroidism Medication for Dogs
What is hypothyroidism in dogs?
Hypothyroidism in dogs is a condition where the thyroid produces lower than normal amounts of thyroid hormones. Also known as underactive thyroid, it causes dogs to have a lower metabolic rate and can lead to weight gain, lethargy, dull and thinning coat and other health issues. Although all the disease's causes are not completely understood, it can be the result of an autoimmune disorder or, in rare cases, thyroid cancer. The condition is usually treatable using hypothyroidism medication for dogs that contains replacement hormones.
