Diese Einschätzung steht jedoch dem Erleben der Patienten gegenüber, die oft noch Jahre nach Therapieende von körperlichen sowie psychischen Beschwerden berichten.

Potential side effects of TSH-suppressive doses of levothyroxine are cardiac tachyarrhythmias, bone demineralisation and symptoms of hyperthyroidism.…”
