Her thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level was found to be 29 mlU/L (reference: 0.27-4.20 mlU/L) and T4 level of 0.42 ng/dL (reference: 0.93-1.70 ng/dL), reflective of severe hypothyroidism. The patient was started on IV levothyroxine and methylprednisolone, with improvement in mental ...
Common (1% to 10%): Decreased free T4, decreased total T3, decreased total T4, elevations in serum prolactin, hyperprolactinemia, increased TSH Uncommon (0.1% to 1%): Decreased free T3, hypothyroidism Very rare (less than 0.01%): SIADH[Ref]In...

Endocrine tests showed an elevated PRL level and hypothyroidism (Table 1). Repeated serum immune tests yielded negative results for ANAs, MPO-ANCAs and PR3-ANCAs. Enhanced MRI revealed pituitary enlargement with stalk compression and chiasmal thickening (Fig. 4a), indicating recurrent lymphocytic ...
Very common (10% or more): Decreased TSH (up to 60%), hypothyroidism (up to 53%), decreased total T4 (up to 45%) Common (1% to 10%): Thyroid disorder, altered hormone level Uncommon (0.1% to 1%): Hyperthyroidism Frequency not reported: Hyperglycemia, decreased libido, increased and ...

Serum free T4 and TSH should be kept within the reference range for the usual regimen of levothyroxine replacement in hypothyroidism. The levothyroxine dosage to achieve TSH suppression after thyroid cancer should be titrated to the smallest possible dose as to avoid complications. For patients with ...
In addition, we examined 1 patient with severe hypothyroidism and myxedema, presenting TSH serum level > 100 µIU/ml. Thyroid hormone function tests The FT3, FT4 and TSH serum levels were assayed using a Chemiluminescent Microparticle Immunoassay (CMIA), an immunoassay analyzer (ARCHITECT ...
Carbamazepine increases the rate of T4 and T3 metabolism and may lead to hypothyroidism in patients with hypothyroidism who are being treated with T4. Carbamazepine may also cause a 20% to 40% decrease in serum total and free T4 concentrations and a smaller decrease in serum total and free T3...
