Methimazole is metabolized through cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes35,36 and flavoprotein mixed-function oxidase (FMO).37,38 Methimazole metabolism through CYP450 enzymes gives N-methylthiourea and glyoxal as two major metabolites.36 Nmethylthiourea is further oxidized with FMO enzyme to give sulfinic and sulfenic acid species.38 Glyoxal, is a reactive compound capable of interacting with different intracellular targets, such as proteins.39 Sulfenic acids are high electrophilic species that form irreversible adduct with cellular nucleophilic sites,40 and may have a role in methimazole-induced hepatotoxicity
