We have had several requests for information on `natural thyroid', and it does seem to be the case that there is a small number of clinicians, especially in the USA, who continue to prescribe thyroid extract `natural thyroid' ; for their patients. This is undoubtedly not mainstream practice.[1] A recent clinical trial in the New England Journal of Medicine re-ignited the debate.[2] In this trial, patients given a combination of thyroxine T4 ; plus liothyronine T3 ; appeared to do better in some respects than those given T4 only. While on the face of it this supports the `natural thyroid' practitioners, there are some significant caveats raised by an editorial accompanying the study[1] by a 37.
Copper metabolism. There are reports of sustained released tri-iodothyronine being used in this syndrome, a recent one in the Puerto Rico health science journal 136 ; . Patients with Wilson's syndrome are usually educated and knowledgeable about thyroid. They have no difficulty obtaining the medication and can order over the Internet. There is no evidence-based data for prescribing this therapy for ``low temperature'' and it can be dangerous, as demonstrated earlier. In the case of factitious thyrotoxicosis the diagnosis depends on clinical suspicion and biochemical thyrotoxicosis with high free T4 and suppressed TSH plus a low uptake of radioiodine. Pearce et al. have recommended the ratio of T4 to help make the diagnosis. However, some patients with factitious thyrotoxicosis take excess liothyronine and in this situation have low free T4 values but very high free T3 and suppressed TSH. The source of thyroid might even be unrecognized by the patient as in the case of diet pills that contain thyroid hormones 137, 138 ; . Patients who take an excess of thyroid hormones but deny taking it have a reason such as to lose weight, increase energy or reduce the need for sleep. Alternative names for this syndrome are thyroxine addict or metabolic malingerer 139, 140 ; . To aid in the diagnosis, serum thyroglobulin is usually low or undetectable 141 ; . However, when the patient has underlying autoimmune thyroid disease, antibodies against thyroglobulin make this measurement less reliable. One group has demonstrated that thyroid hormone levels are higher in the feces when the cause of thyrotoxicosis is attributable to ingestion of the hormone 142 ; . Color flow Doppler is also a valuable investigation because it shows almost absent blood flow to the thyroid 143.

Although previously recommended for all HIVinfected persons, the role of 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine has become less clear. A randomised, placebo-controlled study in African adults showed no decrease in pneumococcal disease in the vaccinated group compared with the placebo group. 12 ; Importantly, this study also showed an increased risk for all types of pneumonia in the vaccine arm. This study has been the subject of much debate focusing on the population group studied and its relevance to other population groups. Recently, a large US-based study looking at the CD4 cell count at the time of vaccination has suggested that a decrease in the rate of pneumococcal disease is demonstrated if the vaccine is given when the CD4 cell count is 500 cells L. 5 ; The influence of HAART on the efficacy of the pneumococcal vaccine in HIV-infected persons has not been tested. Vaccination of asymptomatic patients is temporally related to a rapid and significant rise in viral load in some patients 13 ; , and this effect must be weighed against potential but unclear benefits.

Instruments, Palo Alto, CA ; was equipped with a variable-wavelength detector Varian model UV-200 ; , column heater, auto sampler Varian model 8000 ; , and auto injector model 7126, Rheodyne Corp., Cotati, CA ; with a 200-L loop. Data was handled by a chromatographic data system equipped with a 144K memory, disk storage, and a printer plotter Varian, Vista 402 ; . A commercially available 4 mm ID octadecylsilane column A-Bondapak-Cia, Waters Associates, Milford, MA ; was used. Chromatographic Conditions-The mobile phase was a mixture of 28 acetonitrile and 72 of a 200 mixture of phosphoric acid in water. The percentage of acetonitrile was increased to about 35 when a spherical 5- nm Cig column packing was used. The flow rate was either 1.5 or 2.0 mL per minute, the column temperature was 34C, and the detector was set at 225 nm. Proteolytic Enzyme Solution-A pH 8.4 reducing buffer solution was prepared containing 0.11 M NaCI, 0.04 M Tris buffer, and 0.05 M methimazole. The pH was adjusted to 8.4 0.05 with 6 M HC1. On the day of use the proteolytic enzyme was dissolved in the reducing buffer to prepare a solution containing -150 protease units per milliliter 1 unit liberates a digestion product equivalent to 25 g tyrosine per minute ; . Stock Standard Solutions-Levothyroxine 95 mg ; was dissolved in 100 mL of a 500: 1 mixture of water: acetonitrile: ammonia hydroxide. Similarly, liothyronine 22.5 mg ; was dissolved in 25.0 mL of the same mixture. A working combination stock solution was then prepared by combining 4.0 mL of the levothyroxine stock and 1.0 mL of the liothyronine stock and diluting to 10.0 mL with a 1: mixture of acetonitrile and water. This combination stock was stable for -2 months when stored at 4C in the dark. Working Standard-On the day of use, the combination stock was diluted 1: 50 with the reducing buffer solution. Then, 2.0 mL of enzyme deactivating solution 1: 100 phosphoric acid: acetonitrile ; was added to 5.0 mL of the diluted standard. The final concentrations of liothyronine T3 ; and levothyroxine T4 ; were -1.3 mcg mL and 5.4 mcg mL, respectively. Recovery Standard-The combination stock standard was diluted 1: 50 with proteolytic enzyme solution instead of reducing buffer and treated in the same manner as the samples. Sample Preparation-An accurately weighed portion of powder equivalent to 65 mg 1 grain ; of thyroid proportionately less was used if the iodine content was greater than 0.2 ; was transferred to a screw-capped culture tube, 5.0 mL of proteolytic enzyme solution was added, and the contents were mixed well. The tubes were placed in an incubator maintained at 37 1C, and the contents were agitated after 4-8 h and again after 20-24 h. At the end of the incubation period 28 h 2.0 mL of enzyme deactivating solution was added, and the tubes were mixed well, and centrifuged at about 2000 rpm for 5-10 min. Some samples required filtration through a 0.45- xm membrane filter in order to clarify the sample. Results and Discussion Chromatography-Table 1 shows a typical chromatogram obtained for a 65-mg thyroid tablet. The small peak at 14 min had the same retention time as L-, 3', 5'-triiodothyronine CIV, 1 ; . The approximate amount of 1 was found to be about 1.0-1.6 zg 65 mg of thyroid. The presence of 1 in thyroid has also been reported by other investigators, 4-7 and its presence in samples precluded the use of 1 as convenient internal standard. 0022-3549 86 0200-0215.00 0 1986, American Pharmaceutical Association Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences 215 Vol. 75, No. 2, February 1986.

Ing the initiation of the third cycle of orally administered etoposide monotherapy was reported 19 ; . Antimicrobial druginduced pneumonitis is well reported in patients treated with nitrofurantoin, sulfasalazine, amphotericin B, sulfonamide drugs, p-aminosalicylic acid, and penicillin. Many cases of pneumonitis and eosinophilia associated with ingestion of minocycline have been described 7 ; . Toyoshima et al 20 ; described thin-section CT findings in six patients with minocycline-induced pneumonitis. In their study, groundglass opacity and interlobular septal thickening were observed in all six patients, consolidation was observed in three patients, and micronodules were observed in two patients. Our findings were similar to those of Toyoshima et al. Interlobular septal lines were observed in all our cases of minocycline-induced pneumonitis. In addition, we observed centrilobular nodules in all our cases of minocycline-induced pneumonitis. The appearance of septal lines on chest radiographs obtained in patients with edema caused by an overdose of tricyclic antidepressants has been described 21 ; . The appearance of septal lines on radiographs obtained in patients with interleukin 2 toxic reactions also have been reported 22 ; . In our patient with rifampin-induced pneumonitis, CT findings included interlobular septal thickening, which appeared to represent noncardiogenic interstitial pulmonary edema. However, his symptoms were fever and severe chest pain but no dyspnea. His clinical condition resembled acute chest pain syndrome 23 ; . In the two studies about crazy paving appearance at CT by Murayama et al 24 ; and Johkoh et al 25 ; , intralobular interstitial thickening was observed in druginduced pneumonitis. What kind of drug was studied is unclear in their study. In our study, ground-glass opacity with superimposed intralobular interstitial thickening at thin-section CT was frequent in chemotherapeutic agentinduced pneumonitis. We also observed that centrilobular opacities and interlobular septal lines were frequently observed in antibiotic agent induced pneumonitis. The CT finding of a ground-glass opacity with centrilobular nodules resembles that in extrinsic allergic alveolitis, although centrilobular nodules are considered to be less prominent in most cases of drug-induced pneumonitis than they are in cases of extrinsic allergic pneumonitis 26, 27 ; , and interlobular septal lines are more prominent in cases

Cost of Liothyronine
By Patricia Story, RPh MORE THAN HALF OF ALL PEOPLE AFFECTED by thyroid disease are unaware of their condition, and may have many symptoms but not be diagnosed for years. Thyroid Hormone exists in two major forms: Thyroxine T4 ; , an inactive form that is produced by the thyroid gland and converted to T3 in other areas of the body. Triiodothyronine T3 ; , the active form. Although both T4 and T3 are secreted by the normal thyroid gland, most patients are treated only with levothyroxine synthetic T4 ; . Some hypothyroid patients remain symptomatic, and a combination of levothyroxine and T3 may be required for optimal thyroid replacement therapy. However, the only commercially available form of T3 for replacement therapy is synthetic liothyronine sodium. Liothyronine is an immediate release formulation which is rapidly absorbed, and may result in higher than normal T3 concentrations throughout the body causing serious side effects, including heart palpitations. Research indicates there is a need for sustained-release T3 preparations in order to avoid adverse effects. A randomized, double-blind, crossover study conducted at the School of Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, compared the effects of thyroid hormone replacement with T4 alone versus the use of T4 plus T3 in patients with hypothyroidism. Two-thirds of patients preferred T4 plus T3, and tended to be less depressed than after treatment with T4 alone. This study.

Heat loss is prevented by keeping the patient covered with blankets in a warm room. Laboratory Tests Treatment of patients with thyroid hormones requires the periodic assessment of thyroid status by means of appropriate laboratory tests besides the full clinical evaluation. Serum T3 and TSH levels should be monitored to assess dosage adequacy and biologic effectiveness. Drug Interactions Oral Anticoagulants: Thyroid hormones appear to increase catabolism of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors. If oral anticoagulants are also being given, compensatory increases in clotting factor synthesis are impaired. Patients stabilized on oral anticoagulants who are found to require thyroid replacement therapy should be watched very closely when thyroid is started. If a patient is truly hypothyroid, it is likely that a reduction in anticoagulant dosage will be required. No special precautions appear to be necessary when oral anticoagulant therapy is begun in a patient already stabilized on maintenance thyroid replacement therapy. Insulin or Oral Hypoglycemics: Initiating thyroid replacement therapy may cause increases in insulin or oral hypoglycemic requirements. The effects seen are poorly understood and depend upon a variety of factors such as dose and type of thyroid preparations and endocrine status of the patient. Patients receiving insulin or oral hypoglycemics should be closely watched during initiation of thyroid replacement therapy. Estrogen, Oral Contraceptives: Estrogens tend to increase serum thyroxine-binding globulin TBG ; . In a patient with a nonfunctioning thyroid gland who is receiving thyroid replacement therapy, free levothyroxine may be decreased when estrogens are started thus increasing thyroid requirements. However, if the patient's thyroid gland has sufficient function, the decreased free thyroxine will result in a compensatory increase in thyroxine output by the thyroid. Therefore, patients without a functioning thyroid gland who are on thyroid replacement therapy may need to increase their thyroid dose if estrogens or estrogen-containing oral contraceptives are given. Tricyclic Antidepressants: Use of thyroid products with imipramine and other tricyclic antidepressants may increase receptor sensitivity and enhance antidepressant activity; transient cardiac arrhythmias have been observed. Thyroid hormone activity may also be enhanced. Digitalis: Thyroid preparations may potentiate the toxic effects of digitalis. Thyroid hormonal replacement increases metabolic rate, which requires an increase in digitalis dosage. Ketamine: When administered to patients on a thyroid preparation, this parenteral anesthetic may cause hypertension and tachycardia. Use with caution and be prepared to treat hypertension, if necessary. Vasopressors: Thyroid hormones increase the adrenergic effect of catecholamines such as epinephrine and norepinephrine. Therefore, use of vasopressors in patients receiving thyroid hormone preparations may increase the risk of precipitating coronary insufficiency, especially in patients with coronary artery disease. Therefore, use caution when administering vasopressors with liothyronine T3 ; . Drug Laboratory Test Interactions The following drugs or moieties are known to interfere with laboratory tests performed in patients on thyroid hormone therapy: androgens, corticosteroids, estrogens, oral contraceptives containing estrogens, iodine-containing preparations and the numerous preparations containing salicylates. 1. Changes in TBG concentration should be taken into consideration in the interpretation of T4 and T3 values. In such cases, the unbound free ; hormone should be measured. Pregnancy, estrogens and estrogen-containing oral contraceptives increase TBG concentrations. TBG may also be increased during infectious hepatitis. Decreases in TBG concentrations are observed in nephrosis, acromegaly and after androgen or corticosteroid therapy. Familial hyper- or hypothyroxine-binding globulinemias have been described. The incidence of TBG deficiency approximates 1 in 9000. The binding of thyroxine by thyroxine-binding prealbumin TBPA ; is inhibited by salicylates. 2. Medicinal or dietary iodine interferes with all in vivo tests of radioiodine uptake, producing low uptakes which may not be reflective of a true decrease in hormone synthesis. Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility A reportedly apparent association between prolonged thyroid therapy and breast cancer has not been confirmed and patients on thyroid for established indications should not discontinue therapy. No confirmatory long-term studies in animals have been performed to evaluate carcinogenic potential, mutagenicity, or impairment of fertility in either males or females. Pregnancy Pregnancy Category A: Thyroid hormones do not readily cross the placental barrier. The clinical experience to date does not indicate any adverse effect on fetuses when thyroid hormones are administered to pregnant women. On the basis of current knowledge, thyroid replacement therapy to hypothyroid women should not be discontinued during pregnancy. Nursing Mothers Minimal amounts of thyroid hormones are excreted in human milk. Thyroid hormones are not associated with serious adverse reactions and do not have a known tumorigenic potential. However, caution should be exercised when thyroid hormones are administered to a nursing woman. Geriatric Use Clinical studies of liothyronine sodium did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy. This drug is known to be substantially excreted by the kidney, and the risk of toxic reactions to this drug may be greater in patients with impaired renal function. Because elderly patients are more likely to have decreased renal function, care should be taken in dose selection, and it may be useful to monitor renal function. Pediatric Use There is limited experience with liothyronine sodium injection T3 ; in the pediatric population. Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established and liothyronine.
