Does Carbimazole 5mg Have A Suitable Alternative Medicine That Can Be Taken?
My wife is taking 5mg Carbimazole 4 tablets a day. Unfortunately her medication runs out tomorrow & her appointment with her Specialist is not until Monday 13th Feb. Is there an alternative to this medication available from our GP. YYYY@YYYY
Carbimazole is used for the treatment of hyperthyroidism. It is the only approved drug besides propylthiouracil. Missing 3 - 4 days should not matter that much. Make sure you get the drug as early as possible. There is no alternative for the same.
