A member asked:
I abruptly discontinued stelazine 1.5 mg (typical antipsychotic) w/dr permission, can that contribute to developing a thyroid storm shortly after?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thyroid storm: Extremely unlikely. That said, if you are worried, a visit to a Psychologist would be very helpful for you. Please let me know how things go.
