Abstract
This article presents the background for including phytopreparation Alba (root extract of the Potentilla alba) into complex treatment of thyroid pathology. The findings confirm visible reduction of size of the thyroid gland and normalizing its functions in children and adults with the thyroid gland with normal or enhanced function treated by Alba per oral.
