I am currently taking 10mg carbimazole once a day and I am planning on becoming pregnant in a few months. My doctor told me that before I become pregnant I should switch meds to PTU for the first trimester and then back to carbimazole for the remainder of the pregnancy. However, I read here that dr Hale answered a question asked by a doctor regarding a patient of his who was 25 weeks pregnant and taking carbimazole and dr Hale said carbimazole is not safe to take during any trimester. I’m really confused now, o would really appreciate if someone could explain to me what is the current recommendation?
thank you
