Propylthiouracil
A thiouracil-derived antithyroid drug, approved in the United States in 1947: it blocks thyroid peroxidase, the enzyme that makes thyroid hormones, and reduces the conversion of T4 into the more active T3. It is used for hyperthyroidism, for example in Graves' disease. This family brings together the active ingredient, labelled standards and other impurities.
Did you know?It tastes bitter, like phenylthiocarbamide (PTC), but not everyone perceives it in the same way: sensitivity to this taste appears to be genetic.
