Just started taking propylthiouracil 100mg two times daily. Had to get off of Methimazole 10mg once a day due to an allergic reaction. Hope this works well.

Medicine worked and helped my thyroid normalize again, but I developed bad hives which was embarrassing for awhile, so I didn't give it 5-stars.
