Treatment of Hyperthyroidism
Hyperthyroidism is usually treated with:
Medicines commonly include Beta-blockers or Antithyroid pills.
Radioiodine Therapy is an effective method that uses radioactive iodine -131 to destroy the cells in the gland. Can be taken in the form of capsules or liquid.
Thyroid surgery to remove part of the thyroid gland is less commonly done. Is done only when medications are ineffective or not optional such as people with large goiters or pregnant women.
