The prediction from the outset of the Optimal '/’/س'اااا-ine Dose (OTD) in primary hypothyroidism would be use-fill in decreasing thefrequency (>f outpatient visits and ex-pensive tliyroidfiinction tests.
Fifty six hypothyroid patients »٠ ere followed for one year to stud}' four clinical parant-eters and assess (heir value in predicting OTD.
'{'lie best correlation in both sexes was shown between OTD and pretreatment TSH.
