Total thyroxine levels and body weight were measured over nine months in 213 out-patients with euthyroid goitre who were taking 50--150 micrograms thyroxine daily; 40 persons receiving merely iodine-containing salt served as controls. Weight gain among the thyroxine group averaged 0.34 +/- 0.19 kg, compared with 0.44 +/- 0.38 kg in the control group. In both groups those under 50 years tended to gain weight, while older ones lost it. The results indicate that thyroxine given in usual doses in the treatment of goitre does not affect body weight when thyroid metabolism is normal. |
