A member asked:

Will a drug like invega (paliperidone) or seroquel cause thyroid cancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: This doesn't make sense biologically and no one has noted a trend or association. Both medications have a good safety profile and are widely used; thyroid cancer is fairly common as well and chances are this is a coincidence.
