- Thymalin
- Thymic immune modulation
- Treg upregulation reduces anti-TPO antibodies in Hashimoto's
- Phase 2 trials (Eastern Europe)
- 10–30 mg IM every other day for 10 doses
- Effective for early-stage autoimmune thyroiditis; requires reconstitution within 72 hours; no effect on established hypothyroidism
- KPV
- NF-κB inhibition
- Reduces IL-6 and TNF-α cytokines perpetuating thyroid inflammation
- Preclinical and Phase 1
- 500 mcg–2 mg subcutaneous daily
- Anti-inflammatory support only; does not restore thyroid hormone synthesis; oral bioavailability poor without encapsulation
- Cerebrolysin
- Hypothalamic neuroprotection
- Increases TRH expression in stress-induced central hypothyroidism
- Preclinical (animal models)
- 5–10 mL IV 5 days/week for 4 weeks
- Targets upstream HPT axis dysfunction; irrelevant for primary thyroid failure; requires physician administration
- Iodine peptides (marketed supplements)
- Claimed 'thyroid nourishment'
- None. Iodine is a substrate, not a peptide; conflated terminology
- No valid trials
- N/A
- Marketing fiction; iodine is not a peptide and does not modulate immune or neuroendocrine pathways
