Dechra-Levocrine
From Trenton, FL, USAComments about Levocrine (levothyroxine)I am extremely please with VetRxDirect, customer service, web layout, price & ease of checkout but disappointed I now need to purchase a .01 & .08 to get the .09 dosage prescribed for my dog. The new .01 & .08 tabs of Levocrine (levothyroxine) are so tiny compared to Canine Thyroid Chewable (levothyroxine) 0.9mg, tablets I was getting & only hope they produce the same great results when I used to be able to purchase the single .09 tablet. -

Can it cause diaharria in an older dog??
-
Levocrine (levothyroxine sodium) is a thyroid hormone used to treat hypothyroidism in animals. When the appropriate thyroid replacement dose is given, there should not be any adverse effects associated with therapy. Chronic overdosage of this medication will cause signs of hyperthyroidism, including fast heart rate, increased thirst, increased hunger, and excessive panting. In single acute overdoses vomiting, diarrhea, and fast heart rate have been seen. Talk to your veterinarian to determine if your dog's diarrhea can be attributed to this medication or some other underlying issue. Thank you, VetRxDirect
