A
Propylthiouracil is an antithyroid medication that should be taken three times a day. Reminders will facilitate taking medication as ordered. This medication needs to be taken regularly, not on an as-needed basis. The dosage cannot be combined to reduce the frequency of administration. Because of the adolescent's school schedule and activities, she, rather than her mother, needs to be responsible for her medication.
