THYROGEN (thyrotropin alfa) is a recombinant human thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) administered by injection to stimulate thyroid hormone production and uptake. It is used primarily in thyroid cancer patients undergoing radioactive iodine therapy and diagnostic imaging without requiring thyroid hormone withdrawal. The drug works by binding to TSH receptors on thyroid cells, mimicking the body's natural pituitary hormone.
