Source-linked reading points
- 5 mg and 10 mg are amounts of methimazole per tablet, not the number of tablets to take. An individual plan depends on thyroid function, cause, age, pregnancy, other medicines and monitoring results; the site does not convert laboratory values into tablet counts.
- Fever, chills, sore throat, mouth ulcers or frequent infection may relate to severe white-cell reduction. Do not self-continue, stop or mask it with an antibacterial because it resembles a cold; contact the prescriber or local urgent service promptly as directed by the label.
- Yellow skin or eyes, dark urine, right-upper abdominal pain, persistent nausea or vomiting, marked appetite loss or unusual fatigue may signal liver injury and needs prompt professional assessment.
- Tell the prescribing team promptly about pregnancy, plans for pregnancy or possible pregnancy; the label highlights first-trimester risk. The site does not choose methimazole, propylthiouracil or another option for an individual.
