High-dose intravenous thyroxine (T4) is the preferable treatment for myxedema coma. We describe the clinical course of a 69-year-old man who presented with myxedema coma and received oral levothyroxine (LT4) therapy (1 mg) in a split dose. This suggests split high-dose oral LT4 as a therapeutic option in myxedema coma.
大剂量静脉注射甲状腺素(T4)是黏液性水肿昏迷的首选治疗方法。我们描述了一名69岁男性黏液性水肿昏迷患者的临床病程,该患者接受了分次口服左甲状腺素(LT4)治疗(1毫克)。这表明分次大剂量口服LT4可作为黏液性水肿昏迷的一种治疗选择。
