Resumo

Antithyroid drugs reduce thyroid uptake of radioiodine, so the therapeutic radiation dose delivered to the gland may be inadequate. Treatment failure or the need for repeat dosing may result.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Methimazole and Sodium iodide i-131 can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.

Nível de evidência: Moderate

Por que acontece

Methimazole inhibits thyroid peroxidase and hormone synthesis, which lowers thyroidal radioiodine uptake and retention.

O que fazer

Stop methimazole several days before I-131 administration, typically 3 to 4 days per labeling, and do not give them together. Restart afterward according to the treating specialist's plan and monitor thyroid function.
