Timing of Thyroxine Dose In Ramadan

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

A Randomized trial comparing two different timing of taking thyroxine in patients with Hypothyroidism during fasting the month of Ramadan.

Clinical Trial Description

To date there is debate regarding the best timing of L-thyroxine administration during Ramadan as sufficient evidence is lacking. This study aims to compare two-time points of levothyroxine intake during Ramadan focusing on change in TSH, satisfaction and compliance. A prospective, randomized, open label, multicenter Study. The first group will be will be instructed to take their L-thyroxin dose as per current guidlines at breaking of fast time (sunset) with sip of water then wait 30-60 minutes to consume Iftar meal. The second group (pre-Fajer prayer), patients are going to be instructed to take L-thyroxin dose immediately before start of fast, i.e. Alfajer (dawn) regardless of Suhoor time. The values of Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) will be measured two weeks before Ramadan, and 2-4 weeks after Ramadan for comparison. ;
