Thyrotropin α is a heterodimeric glycoprotein produced by recombinant DNA technology. It can be used to detect serum thyroglobulin (Tg) and help diagnose thyroid diseases. The following will elaborate on the three aspects of how much does Thyrotropin α cost per box, the therapeutic effect and contraindications.

How much does Thyrotropin α cost per box?

Understanding the price of the drug helps to estimate the cost of the entire treatment cycle and make financial preparations in advance.

Price

German version of Thyrotropin α: specification is 0.9 mg*2.

Abroad

The original research company of Thyrotropin α is Genzyme. The Thyrotropin α developed by it was launched in the United States in 1998 and entered many countries and regions around the world.

After understanding the purchase of Thyrotropin α in China, let's take a look at the therapeutic effect.

What is the therapeutic effect of Thyrotropin?

As an innovative therapeutic drug for thyroid differentiation diseases, the therapeutic effect of Thyrotropin α has attracted widespread attention in the medical community.

Treatment effect

Thyrotropin α-assisted diagnosis and thyroid residual radioactive iodine ablation provide a reliable tool for the treatment of thyroid diseases without sacrificing the patient's quality of life.

Trial results

Thyrotropin α can stimulate thyroglobulin levels, with a negative predictive value of up to 98.5%, which helps to reduce repeated testing, improve diagnostic efficiency, significantly shorten preparation time, quickly remove excess radioactive iodine from the body, and reduce whole-body radiation exposure.

After understanding the treatment effect, let's take a look at the contraindications.

What are the contraindications for the use of Thyrotropin α?

As a professional medical drug, Thyrotropin α needs to follow certain precautions during use.

Hyperthyroidism

When Thyrotropin α is given to patients with a large amount of thyroid tissue or functional thyroid disease metastasis, it may cause a transient significant increase in serum thyroid hormone concentrations.

Risk of stroke

In some patients without central nervous system metastasis, stroke may occur after the use of Thyrotropin α. To prevent stroke, patients should stay well hydrated before using Thyrotropin α treatment.

Rapid enlargement of the mass

Sudden, rapid, and painful enlargement of residual thyroid tissue or distant metastases may occur after treatment with Thyrotropin alfa. If you have other questions about Thyrotropin alfa, you can also click on a free online consultation

Risks associated with radioactive iodine therapy

When Thyrotropin alfa is used in combination with radioactive iodine (RAI), all risks and precautions that may be caused by RAI must be considered.

Warm reminder: When using Thyrotropin alfa, the patient's specific condition must be carefully evaluated and symptomatic treatment must be given.
