Radioiodine therapy (i-131)
Servicing Northern California and Southern Oregon, Chico Hospital for Cats, Inc. offers Radioiodine Therapy (I-131) using the new medical management guidelines from the American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP). These guidelines clearly state that the most effective cure for hyperthyroidism is I-131. In addition, effective control of thyroid hormone reduces the rate of decline of kidney function, a common cause of illness in older cats.
