To answer this question, we reviewed the literature using the standard Prescrire methodology. When the symptoms of hyperthyroidism are poorly tolerated, a beta-blocker relieves tachy- cardia, anxiety and tremor. Three treatments have been shown to be effec- tive in controlling hyperthyroidism: antithyroid drugs, radioiodine, and thyroidectomy. Carbimazole and its metabolite thiamazole are the antithyroid drugs with the best harm-benefit balance, except during the first trimester of preg- nancy. About 50% of patients are cured after 12 to 18 months of treatment. Antithyroid drugs carry a risk of rare but serious adverse effects, including agranulocytosis. Hepa- titis is more frequent with propylthiouracil. Radioiodine is administered as a single oral dose, in order to destroy the thyroid gland. Perma- nent cure is achieved in about 80% of cases, usu- ally after 1 or 2 months. Permanent hypothyroid- ism is frequent, occurring at various intervals after treatment. Radioiodine may exacerbate pre-existing oph- thalmopathy or provoke its onset, especially among smokers. Corticosteroid therapy reduces this risk. Protective measures are used for a few days or weeks in order to avoid radiation exposure among close contacts. Radioiodine is contraindi- cated during pregnancy. Surgical thyroidectomy may be total with little risk of recurrence, or subtotal with about an 8% risk of recurrence. The complications of surgery mainly consist of. hypoparathyroidism and permanent paralysis of the recurrent laryngeal nerve, which occur after 1% to 5% of procedures. In practice, the choice of treatment depends on the patient's preferences and situation, including a woman's desire to conceive, size of the goitre, the degree of hyperthyroidism, and the presence of ophthalmopathy.</p>","PeriodicalId":35983,"journal":{"name":"Prescrire International","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"36938026","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
