Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two methods of guiding methimazole therapy in patients with Graves' disease: methimazole dose adjustments based on a new semi-automated computer-guided treatment (based on a mathematical model) or based on the treating physician's decision (i.e. usual care). The main question it aims to answer is whether semi-automated computer-guided treatment is not inferior to usual care in terms of safety, the time it takes to achieve euthyroidism and the methimazole dose required.
