The Pharmacist’s Take By · Clinical pharmacist · Written

Methimazole is the preferred antithyroid medicine for hyperthyroidism (an overactive thyroid) from Graves’ disease or toxic multinodular goiter, and it also settles symptoms before thyroid surgery or radioactive iodine. It works by blocking the thyroid from making new hormone, has been on the U.S. market since about 1950 and is available as a generic. Most people tolerate it well, and the side effects they tend to notice are a rash, itching or an upset stomach. Watch above all for fever or a sore throat, which can signal agranulocytosis (a dangerous drop in infection-fighting white blood cells) and needs reporting the same day.

Clinical pearls

  • It cannot clear hormone already made, so improvement builds over weeks while TSH and free T4 blood tests guide the dose.
  • Yellowing skin or eyes, poor appetite or pain in the upper right belly can signal liver trouble, so report them promptly.
  • Warfarin needs closer INR (clotting) checks, and digoxin, beta blocker and theophylline doses may need lowering as thyroid levels normalize.
  • If you are or could become pregnant, tell your prescriber, since it can cause first-trimester birth defects.

Patient information guide A plain-language walkthrough of Methimazole, written from its FDA label.

What Methimazole is used for

▾

Methimazole is used to treat an overactive thyroid in these situations:

  • Methimazole tablets treat hyperthyroidism from Graves’ disease or toxic multinodular goiter when surgery or radioactive iodine is not an appropriate option.
  • Methimazole tablets ease hyperthyroid symptoms in preparation for thyroidectomy or radioactive iodine therapy.

How Methimazole works

▾

Methimazole stops the thyroid from making new thyroid hormones, which brings down the excess hormone that causes hyperthyroidism.

It does not inactivate hormone already stored in the thyroid or in your blood. It also does not interfere with thyroid hormone medicine taken by mouth or by injection.

Methimazole dosage

▾

Methimazole tablets are taken by mouth, usually as 3 doses spread about 8 hours apart. Your starting amount depends on how severe your hyperthyroidism is, and it is later lowered to a maintenance level. Children’s doses are based on body weight.

Follow your prescriber’s directions and your pharmacy label.

Dosing details from the FDA-approved label

Methimazole side effects

▾

Most side effects are mild and include:

Common side effects

  • Skin rash or hives
  • Itching
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Upset stomach
  • Joint or muscle aches
  • Headache
  • Hair loss
  • Loss of taste
  • Headache, drowsiness, or dizziness (vertigo)
  • Tingling or numbness
  • Swelling

When to get medical help

  • Fever or sore throat: call your doctor right away, as these can be signs of agranulocytosis, a dangerously low white blood cell count.
  • Loss of appetite, itching, pain in the upper right belly, or yellowing of skin or eyes: these can signal liver problems.
  • Signs of vasculitis (blood vessel inflammation), such as unusual skin changes, kidney problems, coughing up blood, or nerve problems: contact your doctor promptly.
  • Unusual bleeding or bruising, or signs of other blood count problems: get medical advice.
  • Symptoms of low blood sugar, which can occur with insulin autoimmune syndrome: seek help.
  • Severe stomach pain, which may be a sign of pancreatitis: seek medical care.

Less common but serious reactions include low blood counts, liver problems, vasculitis, pancreatitis, and a lupus-like syndrome. Call your doctor right away for fever, sore throat, yellow skin or eyes, or unusual symptoms.

Methimazole warnings and precautions

▾
  • Agranulocytosis: a potentially life-threatening drop in white blood cells. Report fever or sore throat immediately.
  • Other blood problems: low platelets and aplastic anemia can occur. The drug should be stopped if these happen.
  • Liver toxicity: including acute liver failure, though risk appears lower than with propylthiouracil. Watch for loss of appetite, itching, or upper right belly pain.
  • Hypothyroidism: TSH and free T4 are checked routinely to adjust your dose.
  • Vasculitis: can affect skin, kidneys, lungs, and nerves, and may require stopping the drug.
  • Pregnancy: can cause birth defects in the first trimester and fetal goiter and cretinism.

Methimazole interactions

▾

Methimazole can affect how other medicines work, especially as your thyroid levels return to normal.

  • Warfarin and oral blood thinners: effect may increase, so INR may need monitoring.
  • Beta blockers: doses may need to be reduced as you become euthyroid.
  • Digoxin and similar drugs: blood levels may rise, so a lower dose may be needed.
  • Theophylline: it may clear more slowly, so a lower dose may be needed.

Interactions listed in the FDA-approved label

From the Methimazole prescribing information (“Drug Interactions”): what the manufacturer studied or reported to the FDA.

  • Anticoagulants (oral), e.g., warfarin: Due to potential inhibition of vitamin K activity by methimazole, the activity of oral anticoagulants may be increased. Additional monitoring of PT/INR should be considered, especially before surgical procedures.
  • β-adrenergic blocking agents: Hyperthyroidism may cause an increased clearance of beta blockers with a high extraction ratio. A dose reduction of beta-adrenergic blockers may be needed when a hyperthyroid patient becomes euthyroid.
  • Digitalis glycosides: Serum digitalis levels may be increased when hyperthyroid patients on a stable digitalis glycoside regimen become euthyroid. A reduced dosage of digitalis glycosides may be needed.
  • Theophylline: Theophylline clearance may decrease when hyperthyroid patients on a stable theophylline regimen become euthyroid. A reduced dose of theophylline may be needed.

Before taking Methimazole

▾
  • Do not use if allergic to methimazole or any ingredient in the tablets.
  • Tell your prescriber if you are pregnant or planning pregnancy, because of the risk of birth defects.
  • Mention any liver problems.
  • Share a full list of your medicines, especially blood thinners, beta blockers, digoxin, and theophylline.
  • Plan on regular blood tests to check your thyroid levels.

Methimazole overdose

▾

Too much methimazole can cause nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, headache, fever, joint pain, itching, and swelling. Serious blood problems such as agranulocytosis or aplastic anemia can show up within hours to days. Less often, liver, kidney, skin, or nerve problems occur. Contact your Regional Poison Control Center or seek medical care right away.

What Methimazole does in the body

▾

Methimazole lowers thyroid hormone production, which treats hyperthyroidism. It does not inactivate thyroid hormone that is already made, stored, or circulating, so its full effect takes time to appear.

How your body processes Methimazole

▾

Methimazole is readily absorbed from the digestive tract. It is broken down in the liver and removed from the body in the urine.

How to store Methimazole

▾

Store at 20° to 25°C (68° to 77°F) . Dispense in a tight, light-resistant container.

Methimazole: pharmacist answers to common questions

Quick, plain-English answers to the questions patients ask most about Methimazole — the kind of thing our pharmacy team would talk through with you at the counter.

What is methimazole used for?

▾
It treats hyperthyroidism, which means an overactive thyroid, from Graves’ disease or toxic multinodular goiter. It is used when surgery or radioactive iodine isn’t a good option. It can also calm symptoms before you have thyroid surgery or radioactive iodine treatment.

How do I take it?

▾
You take the tablets by mouth, and the daily amount is usually split into 3 doses about 8 hours apart. Your prescriber chooses your dose and will change it as your thyroid improves. Follow your pharmacy label closely.

What side effects are common?

▾
Some people get a rash, itching, nausea, upset stomach, headache, joint or muscle aches, hair loss, or a change in taste. Mention anything that bothers you or doesn’t go away.

When should I call my doctor right away?

▾
Call right away if you develop a fever or sore throat, since these can signal a dangerously low white blood cell count. Also call for yellow skin or eyes, loss of appetite, itching, or upper right belly pain, which may mean liver trouble. Unusual skin changes, coughing blood, or kidney or nerve symptoms need attention too.

Can I take it with my other medicines?

▾
Tell me about everything you take. Methimazole can change how blood thinners like warfarin work, and as your thyroid levels normalize, doses of beta blockers, digoxin, and theophylline may need to be lowered. Your doctor may check your INR if you take warfarin.

Is it safe in pregnancy?

▾
Let your prescriber know right away if you are pregnant or planning to be. Methimazole can cause birth defects when used in the first trimester, so other treatments may be considered. If it is used, the lowest dose that controls your thyroid is recommended.

Is Methimazole available over the counter?

▾
No. Methimazole is a prescription medicine: every Methimazole product listed with the FDA is prescription only, so it is not sold over the counter. Your prescriber decides whether it is appropriate for you, and your pharmacist dispenses it.

When was Methimazole first available?

▾
The earliest FDA record we hold for Methimazole is from 1950: its first approval in Drugs@FDA or its earliest product listing in the NDC Directory, whichever is older. Many older medicines were in use before their first formal FDA approval, so this is the earliest date on record, not necessarily when Methimazole was first used.

Who makes Methimazole?

▾
21 companies currently list Methimazole products in the FDA's NDC Directory, including Bryant Ranch Prepack, Preferred Pharmaceuticals Inc., Remedyrepack Inc.. That count includes repackagers and distributors as well as manufacturers (companies that sell only the raw ingredient are not counted), so fewer companies actually make it; the label on your bottle names the one that supplied yours.
