Thyroxin has been shown to have a beneficial effect on renal function in cases of pending renal failure in animal studies. Studies of the use of thyroxin in humans in pending renal failure are scarce. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of oral thyroxin on the renal function of asphyxiated neonates who often have renal impairment.A randomised controlled trial was conducted. Two groups of 15 term asphyxiated neonates were studied. Thyroxin (50) was given on day 1, 2 and 3 of life for the treatment group and placebo was given for the control group. Renal function was studied on day 1 and day 4 of life. The two groups were not statistically significant different for gestational age, birthweight, severity of asphyxia, pregnancy or...
