[Taste disorders and liver parenchymal damage after administration of thiamazole (author's transl)]. 1976

K D Kolenda

Marked, and in some cases long-lasting, taste disturbances occurred in three patients on thiamazole. In addition, all three had a rise in serum transaminases and alkaline phosphatase levels, due to associated liver parenchymal damage. Cause of these changes was the high thiamazole dosage (160 and 120 mg/d). Reduction in dosage restored normal taste sense in all three, but in two the drug had to be discontinued because of persisting high transaminase levels.

D006980 Hyperthyroidism Hypersecretion of THYROID HORMONES from the THYROID GLAND. Elevated levels of thyroid hormones increase BASAL METABOLIC RATE. Hyperthyroid,Primary Hyperthyroidism,Hyperthyroidism, Primary,Hyperthyroids
D008713 Methimazole A thioureylene antithyroid agent that inhibits the formation of thyroid hormones by interfering with the incorporation of iodine into tyrosyl residues of thyroglobulin. This is done by interfering with the oxidation of iodide ion and iodotyrosyl groups through inhibition of the peroxidase enzyme.
