==Clinical use== |
|
|
Therapy for hyperthyroidism generally starts at a high daily dose of 15 - 40mg continued until the patient has normal ], and then reduced to a maintenance dose of 5 - 15mg. Treatment is usually given for 12 - 18 months followed by a trial withdraw. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
==Medical uses== |
|
The onset of anti-thyroid effect is rapid but the onset of clinical effects on thyroid hormone levels in the blood is much slower. This is because the large store of pre-formed T3 and T4 in the thyroid gland and bound to ] (99% bound) has to be depleted before any beneficial clinical effect occurs. |
|
|
|
Medical therapy for hyperthyroidism typically involves either titrating the dose of carbimazole until the patient becomes euthyroid or maintaining a high dose of carbimazole to suppress endogenous thyroid production, and then replacing thyroid hormone with levothyroxine ("block and replace"). Treatment is usually given for 18–24 months followed by a trial withdraw.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Lawrence N, Cheetham T, Elder C | title = How do paediatricians use and monitor antithyroid drugs in the UK?

==Precautions== |
|
|
Some people are allergic to ](s). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
==Adverse effects== |
|
Some azole drugs have adverse ]s. |
|
|
|
Whilst ]es and ] are common, these can often be treated with ]s without stopping the carbimazole. For those patients where sensitivity reactions cannot be controlled, ] may be used as an alternative; cross-sensitivity between these drugs is rare. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Its most serious rare side effect is ] causing ] and ]. This may occur at any stage during treatment and without warning; monitoring of white cell count is not useful. Patients are advised to immediately report symptoms of infection, such as ] or fever, so that a ] test may be arranged. If this confirms a low neutrophil count, discontinuation of the drug leads to recovery. However failure to report suggestive symptoms or delays in considering the possibility of immunosuppression and its testing, can lead to fatalities. |

Carbimazole should be used judiciously in pregnancy as it crosses the placenta. It has (rarely) been associated with congenital defects, including ] of the neonate but is not contra-indicated. However, it more predictably may cause fetal ] so (in minimal doses) it can be used in order to control maternal ]. There are reported cases of goiter and ] in fetus.<ref>{{cite book | vauthors = Brunton L, Chabner BA, Knollman B |title=Goodman & Gilman's pharmacological basis of therapeutics. |date=2011 |publisher=McGraw-Hill |isbn=978-0-07-162442-8 |edition=12th}}</ref> Furthermore, breast feeding is possible but only if lowest effective dose is used and neonatal development is closely monitored. |

Patients are advised to immediately report symptoms of infection, especially ], so that a ] test may be arranged. If this confirms a low neutrophil count then the drug must be discontinued immediately, allowing for usually a prompt recovery.

Should be used with caution in pregnancy as crosses the placenta barrier. |

For the above reasons, it is preferable to use ] in pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, with the possibility of changing to carbimazole for the second and third trimesters.<ref name="pmid19583480">{{cite journal | vauthors = Bahn RS, Burch HS, Cooper DS, Garber JR, Greenlee CM, Klein IL, Laurberg P, McDougall IR, Rivkees SA, Ross D, Sosa JA, Stan MN | display-authors = 6 | title = The Role of Propylthiouracil in the Management of Graves' Disease in Adults: report of a meeting jointly sponsored by the American Thyroid Association and the Food and Drug Administration | journal = Thyroid | volume = 19 | issue = 7 | pages = 673–674 | date = July 2009 | pmid = 19583480 | doi = 10.1089/thy.2009.0169 }}</ref> |
