Explain the following:Why is it important for the patient to remain consistency on prescribed medication?What are the actions of thyroid medications? Levothyroxine(T4) is a synthetic version of the body's natural thyroid hormone: thyroxine(T4). Normally, the hypothalamus secretes thyrotropin-releasing hormone(TRH), which then stimulates the anterior pituitary to secrete thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH), which subsequently stimulates the thyroid to secrete 80% thyroxine (T4) and 20% L-triiodothyronine(T3). 50% of thyroxine (T4) then gets converted to its active metabolite L-triiodothyronine (T3). The thyroid hormones then work by binding to thyroid receptor proteins contained within the cell nucleus.[7] (Links to an external site.)What are the serious adverse effects of taking this medication?Angina pectorisTachycardiaPalpitationsArrhythmiaMyocardial infarction[19] (Links to an external site.)Atrial fibrillationAnxietyWeight loss or gainWhat should you teach your patient in relationship to their diagnosis?
