What medicine does hyperthyroidism take

Drug 1: thioureas include propylthiouracil and methylthiouracil.

Drug 2: imidazoles include methimazole (tabazole) and carbimazole (hyperthyroidism). The mechanism of action of the two drugs is: ① inhibiting the synthesis of thyroid hormone; ② improving the immune monitoring function, reducing or disappearing the serum thyroid stimulating hormone receptor antibody (TRAb) or thyroid stimulating immune complex (TSI), which is more likely to have long-term remission of hyperthyroidism; ③ propylthiouracil can also prevent the transformation of T4 into T3, which can be used as the first choice drug for severe hyperthyroidism or hyperthyroidism crisis.

Drug 3: lithium carbonate can prevent thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), TRAb and TSI from affecting thyroid. It is mainly used in patients with hyperthyroidism and leukopenia, but it can cause mental depression and renal tubular damage. Attention should be paid in use. The dose is 0.25g, 3 times a day, oral.
