**Methymazole hyperactive thyroid drug** Methimazole, also known by the brand name Tapazole, is a drug used to treat hyperthyroidism. According to research, it may cause weight gain due to the specific mode of action of this drug, which blocks the activity of thyroid hormone and reduces metabolism. This thyroid drug has many side effects, that's why it is recommended to undergo surgery for hyperthyroidism. You can read more about **Mati Mazol's pill** on Dr. Fanai's website. **Relation between overweight and thyroid disorders** People with thyroid problems may gain weight due to the effect of this gland on the body's metabolism. The thyroid gland secretes hormones that regulate the body's metabolism. **If the thyroid gland is underactive** (hypothyroidism), the amount of thyroid hormones decreases and as a result the body's metabolism slows down. This slow metabolism can lead to weight gain because the body burns calories at a slower rate. Also, if the thyroid gland is overactive (hyperthyroidism) and secretes more hormones than the body needs, the body's metabolism increases and the person may lose weight. However, in some cases, the treatment of hyperthyroidism can lead to a decrease in thyroid activity and thus weight gain. Therefore, changes in weight can indicate a change in thyroid function and a doctor should be consulted to determine the exact cause and appropriate treatment methods. In clinical studies, people who took methimazole lost an average of 2.5 kg in the first month they started taking it. After the first month, weight loss decreased by an average of 0.5 kg per week. **Can Matthew Mazole always be used?** You should know that methimazole is not approved for long-term use. It is usually only used for six months or less because it can have many side effects if used continuously. For this reason **thyroid surgery** is the best way to treat hyperthyroidism. In this case, the overactive thyroid is changed to an underactive thyroid, and levothyroxine does not have side effects like methimazole. **Dr. Ahmed Fanai is a thyroid and parathyroid surgeon with a long history who performs surgeries using the most up-to-date equipment and technology in the well-equipped Irfan and Irfan Niayesh hospitals.** **Does methimazole cause obesity and weight gain?** People who are taking medication to treat hyperthyroidism may experience weight gain. Methymazole slows down metabolism and reduces the amount of energy produced in the body, which can lead to weight gain. Also, taking a high dose of medicine may turn an overactive thyroid into an underactive thyroid. Excess weight is one of the symptoms of hypothyroidism. Changing the dose of methimazole may lead to adequate thyroid hormone production (without causing symptoms of hyperthyroidism) and help with weight management. ### **What points should be paid attention to when taking methimazole?** It is important to take methimazole exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you forget a dose, do not double the dose. Methimazole can interact with many other medications. Consult your doctor before starting new medications. If you have diabetes, methimazole can affect your blood sugar levels, and you may need to take more insulin or change the dose of your oral medications if needed. Your doctor will monitor you for any changes in your blood sugar levels while you are taking this medicine. You should not stop taking methimazole suddenly. Reduce the dose slowly so that the thyroid gland has time to adjust and return to normal. If you need surgery, tell your doctor. If you are pregnant, call your doctor right away for instructions on how to dispose of the medication.
