It is shown that combined treatment with thyroxin and diazepam permits to avoid negative effect of either drug on the bone tissue. Mutual regulation of thyroxin and diazepam activities is mediated through their competitive binding to common receptors. It is hypothesized that the key factor in this process is steric availability of the receptor; in other words, close localization of thyroxin and diazepam targets may interfere with simultaneous activation of receptors by the two ligands and account for the effects of their combined administration described in the present work.
