Iodine deficiency is not uncommon. The soils is depleted
of this mineral in mountainous regions, locations with
frequent flooding, and inland regions of central Asia,
Africa, central and eastern Europe, and the Midwest
region of the US. While people once maintained iodine
adequacy via consumption of iodized salt and milk, many
elect to avoid these consumables in their diet, increasing
the risk of iodine deficiency.
Administration of iodine/iodide in liquid solution is not
very accurate, may stain clothing, has an unpleasant taste
and can cause gastric irritation. Iodoral® is a precisely
quantified tablet form containing 5 mg iodine and 7.5
mg iodide as the potassium salt. To prevent gastric
irritation, the iodine/iodide preparation is absorbed into a
colloidal silica excipient (Micosolle®), and to eliminate the
unpleasant taste of iodine, the tablets are coated with a
thin film of pharmaceutical glaze.*
Iodine is an essential element. It primarily supports the
thyroid gland, but other organs in the body have a need
for iodine in order to function normally.*
During the early
1900’s, the iodine/iodide solution called Lugol solution
was used extensively, effectively, and safely in medical
practice, for both low activity and above normal activity of
the thyroid gland.*
