As lithium inhibits thyroid hormone release from the thyroid gland it can be used as an adjunct therapy in the management of severe hyperthyroidism It also increases thyroidal radioiodine retention and may be effective in reducing administered activity in hyperthyroidism There is no clinical benefit of lithium therapy in thyroid cancer More research is required oil the Cellular proliferative effects Of lithium as well as its impact oil the immune system (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved.
