Özet: Introduction: Grave’s disease is a relatively prevalent autoimmune thyroid disorder and it is most frequent cause of thyrotoxicosis. Antithyroid drugs are directed at reducing thyroid hormone production, which is ultimately responsible for the symptoms and signs of thyrotoxicosis. Aim: The present study is an attempt to analyse the effect of Carbimazole treatment on Grave’s disease. Methodology: It was a retrospective study done on 53 patients attending OPD in Patna Medical College, Bihar, India. Results: There was significant difference between the mean age of males and females. As a result of our intervention of carbimazole therapy, 73.6% patients showed improvement in their clinical profile. Only 3 patients didn’t show any improvement.
