So, Resmetirom is this kind of drug, called a thyroid hormone receptor beta agonist, and it’s made to help with something called NASH. NASH is a liver problem where there’s too much fat built up in the liver, and it leads to inflammation. The drug acts by improving liver fat metabolism.
You can get it in a tablet, and each one has 80 mg. Doctors usually suggest taking one of these 80 mg tablets each day. You’ll find these in bottles, with each one holding 30 pills.
They use it to try and cut down on the fat in the liver, make liver tests look better, and maybe keep the liver disease from getting worse for people with NASH.
