The State Pharmaceuticals Corporation says that the levothyroxine 50mcg drug, which is commonly used for thyroid gland diseases, will be released to private sector pharmacies as a local product within 4 weeks.

LEVOTHYROXINE 50mcg is a drug manufactured by the State Pharmaceutical Corporation and supplied to the Medical Supplies Unit.

It is a special feature that the drug is given as a blister pack.
