Well, all hope is not necessarily lost. The problem with using synthetic hormones is that they replace the action of the thyroid gland. When this happens the thyroid gland does not need to supply hormones anymore and shrinks, or atrophies, due to disuse. You can provide the Hypothyroid Tonic and add in the Thyroid Glandular to your pet's routine. Another good choice to provide cellular nutrition and energy would be the Biopreparation F3 formula to support the endocrine system. Then, working with your vet because you shouldn't reduce medications on your own without guidance, begin to slowly lower the thyroid medication and see if your dog's body is able to respond.
