Back 30

drug used to treat hypothyroidism

Front 31

antithyroid drugs

Back 31

drugs used to treat hyperthyroidism (over-acting thyroid). They act by inhibiting the production of T3 and
T4 in the thyjroid gland.

Front 32

propylthiouracil

Back 32

antithyroid drug used to treat hyperthyroidism

Front 33

Tapazole

Back 33

antithyroid drug used to treat hyperthyroidism

Front 34

somatropin

Back 34

drug used to treat the Pituitary gland. The pituitary gland secretes growth hormones. Decreased levels of the hormone inhibit skeletal growth in children. This drug is used as replacement therapy.

Front 35

Diabetes Insipidus

Back 35

the pituitary gland secretes vasopressin, which inhibits the excretion of water by the kidneys. Vasopressin is also known as ADH (antidiuretic hormone) because of this effect. A lack of ADH results in diabetes insipidus

Front 36

vasopressin
