A member asked:
If seroquel and abilify (aripiprazole) cause enlarged thyroid cancer will my doctor put me on another one?

Up to you Doctor: It is unusual for those medications to cause thyroid problems. There is some thought that it may be a temporary problem eventually going back to normal. However, the option of treating the under active thyroid with thyroid hormone replacement may be a consideration for the physician if the seroquel and Abilify (aripiprazole) are the best options for the patient's underlying problem.

Not Cancer: It is unusual for those medications to cause an underactive thyroid. There is some thought that it may be a temporary problem eventually going back to normal. However, the option of treating the underactive thyroid with thyroid hormone replacement may be a consideration for the physician if these psych meds are the best options for the patient's initial problem. Thyroid cancer is different.
