2% Iodine & 4% Potassium iodide in bi-demineralized water,
pharmaceutical grade
"This medication contains iodine and potassium iodide. It is used along
with antithyroid medicines to prepare the thyroid gland for surgical
removal and to treat certain overactive thyroid conditions
(hyperthyroidism, thyroid storm). It works by shrinking the size of the
thyroid gland, and by decreasing the amount of thyroid hormones the body
makes. This medication may also be used to protect the thyroid gland after
radioactive iodine treatment or in a radiation exposure emergency. In
such cases, this product blocks the thyroid gland from absorbing
radioactive iodine, protecting it from damage and reducing the risk of
thyroid cancer. In a radiation exposure emergency, use this medication
along with other emergency measures that will be recommended to you by
public health and safety officials (such as finding safe shelter,
evacuation, and controlling food supply). This medication may also be used
for other conditions as determined by your doctor (such as treatment of
iodine deficiency).
How to use LUGOL's Take this medication by mouth as directed. Use the dropper that comes
with the bottle to measure the correct dose. To improve the taste, mix
the dose in a full glass (8 ounces or 240 milliliters) of water, milk,
formula, or juice before taking. To decrease stomach upset, take this
medication after meals or with food.
Dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment.
Do not increase your dose, take it more often, or take it for longer
than prescribed or recommended because of the increased risk of side
effects.
In a radiation emergency, take this drug only when public health and
safety officials tell you to do so. Start treatment as soon as possible
for the best protection. The length of treatment will be determined by
public health and safety officials.
If so directed, use this medication regularly to get the most benefit
from it. To help you remember, take it at the same time(s) each day." https://www.webmd.com/drugs/2/drug-20753 /lugols-oral/details
