Anti thyrox Tablet contains Carbimazole as the active ingredient which is an anti-thyroid medication. It works by reducing the amount of thyroid hormones produced by the thyroid gland.
Carbimazole decreases the uptake and concentration of inorganic iodine by thyroid, it also reduces the formation of di-iodotyrosine and thyroxine. Carbimazole is converted to its active form of methimazole, it prevents the thyroid peroxidase enzyme from coupling and iodinating the tyrosine residues on thyroglobulin, hence reducing the production of the thyroid hormones T3 and T4.
