Original Abstract of the Article

Main Research Findings

The use of antithyroid drugs (ATDs) thiamazole (MMI) and propylthiouracil (PTU) is associated with a high frequency of side effects. 1 . When patients experience side effects with one (the 1st) ATD, it is usually discontinued and another is administered (the 2nd ATD). 1 . Anti-estrogen therapy with tamoxifen and letrozole is effective in preventing breast cancer recurrence but can affect thyroid function. 2 . Long-term treatment with levothyroxine for hypothyroidism can cause many side effects. 3 . Herbal medicine treatment can regulate thyroid hormones and prevent side effects. 3 .

Reasons for Side Effects

Antithyroid drugs and anti-estrogen drugs can affect hormone balance in the body, leading to side effects. 1 , 2 . Long-term levothyroxine treatment for hypothyroidism can lead to side effects. 3 .

Comparison of Studies

Commonalities

All three studies examine side effects of drug treatments.

Differences

Study 1 examines the side effects of antithyroid drugs. Study 2 examines the side effects of anti-estrogen drugs. Study 3 examines the treatment of hypothyroidism.

Considerations for Real-Life Application

It is important to discuss the risks of side effects with your doctor when undergoing drug treatment. 1 , 2 . Herbal medicine treatment should also be done in consultation with your doctor. 3 .

Limitations of Current Studies

All three studies focus on specific drugs or treatments. Therefore, it is unclear whether these findings are applicable to other drugs or treatments.

Future Research Directions

Further research is needed on the side effects of various drugs and treatments.

Conclusion

Antithyroid drugs and anti-estrogen drugs are known to cause side effects. 1 , 2 . Long-term levothyroxine treatment for hypothyroidism can lead to side effects. 3 . It is important to discuss the risks of side effects with your doctor when undergoing drug treatment. 1 , 2 . Herbal medicine treatment should also be done in consultation with your doctor. 3 .
