Has your cat been diagnosed with hypothyroidism? While there are several treatment options for cats with hyperthyroidism, radioactive iodine therapy is considered the gold standard for cats of all ages as it is simple, effective and safe.
In this article, we explain what hyperthyroidism in cats is, how to recognise the options available for treatment. The treatment targets overactive thyroid tissue with a small dose of iodine, sparing healthy areas.
Hyperthyroidism is among the most common conditions affecting older cats, particularly those over 10. This disorder occurs when the thyroid gland becomes overactive, producing excessive thyroid hormone.
