We will explore all the treatment options to find what’s right for you

If only there was one medication that worked for all of us — but the reality is that we each react differently to the different treatment options. Thus, we work closely with our patients to investigate which treatment is ideal and what dosage is optimal.

Monitoring the dosage of your medication

Your Paloma doctor will determine a dosage that's appropriate for your age, weight, current thyroid production, other medical conditions and other factors.

Your provider will retest your TSH levels about 6 to 10 weeks later and adjust the dosage as necessary.

Once the best dosage is determined, you will continue to take the medication once a day. You'll need follow-up tests at least once a year to monitor TSH levels or any time after your provider changes your dosage.
