Abstract

Due to the widespread use of amiodarone in clinical practice, it is necessary to remember its possible undesirable effects. Treatment with amiodarone can lead to impaired thyroid functional activity from minor changes to hypothyroidism or severe thyrotoxicosis (amiodarone -induced thyreopathy-AIT). The questions of pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of AIT are discussed. Particular attention is paid to the examination of the patient before starting therapy with amiodarone. The question of canceling or continuing treatment with amiodarone in AIT should be addressed individually for each patient collaboratively by a cardiologist and endocrinologist.
