Abstract
Hypothyroidism has been associated with quetiapine, but the underlying mechanism is not well understood and has been presumed to result from thyroid gland dysfunction (primary hypothyroidism). We present a case of symptomatic quetiapine-induced hypothyroidism due to hypothalamic/pituitary gland dysfunction (central [secondary] hypothyroidism). Published by Elsevier Inc.Entities:
