Antithyroid drug of choice in pregnancy -: (A) Carbimazole, (B) Iodine therapy, (C) Propylthiouracil, (D) Metimazole
Answer is C. Ans. is 'c' i.e., Propylthiouracil o Both carbimazole and propylthiourcil can be used during pregnancy, but propyl-thiouracil is the drug of choicebecause its greater protein binding allows low doses of propylthioracil to be transferred across the placenta and therefore less chance of hypothyroidism.
