Cortisol-Inhibitors | Cushing's Disease, Excessive cortisol production | Metopirone | metyrapone | Inhibits the synthesis of cortisol by the adrenal cortex. | |
Antithyroids | Hyperthyroidism | Tapazole | methimazole | Decreases the amount of thyroxine hormone produced by the thyroid gland | |
Thyroid Medications | Hypothyroidism | Synthroid | levothyroxine | Mimics the hormone thyroxine and allows the thyroid gland to resume normal regulation of various body processes. | |
Thyroid Medications | Hypothyroidism | Armour Thyroid | Mimics the hormone thyroxine and allows the thyroid gland to resume normal regulation of various body processes. | ||
