Overview
Pharmacologic medical therapies for Riedel's thyroiditis include corticosteroids, tamoxifen, and mycophenolate mofetil.[1]
Medical Therapy
- Pharmacologic medical therapies for Riedel's thyroiditis include Corticosteroids and tamoxifen.[2][3][4][5][6]
- Mycophenolate mofetil is also used in combination with corticosteroids.[7]
Treatment regimen for Riedel's thyroiditis
As is a Riedel's thyroiditis rare disease the effectiveness of therapy and dosages have not yet been assessed. As a result, dosage regimens and duration of therapy cannot be defined. The current recommendations are based on the clinical manifestations, associated conditions, and the response to treatment.
- Preferred regimen (1): Prednisone 15-60mg PO q24h for 6 months to 2 years
- Preferred regimen (2): Prednisone 500 mg PO q24h for 6 months to 2 years
- Alternative regimen (1): Tamoxifen 10-20 mg PO q24h for 6 months to 2 years
- Alternative regimen (1): Mycophenolate mofetil 1 g PO q12h for 6 months to 2 years
