Product Information

Because KI acts to block radioactive iodine from being taken into the thyroid gland, it can help protect this gland from injury. Potassium Iodide may be used when it is desirable to maintain a healthy level of beneficial iodides in the thyroid gland.

Iodide is the ion form of iodine, occurring when iodine bonds with another element, such as potassium. KI floods the thyroid with non-radioactive iodine and prevents the uptake of the radioactive molecules, which are subsequently excreted in the urine. Studies in the 1980s suggested that a nuclear exchange between Russia and America would lead to a “nuclear winter” in which smoke and soot block the sun’s rays, lowering global temperatures and making it harder to grow food. What assumptions should be made about its actual availability and use in the event of an incident if potassium iodide is predistributed? We continue to set science in motion to create a better world by providing you with the right solutions to keep moving forward.In December 2001, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a final Guidance on Potassium Iodide as a Thyroid Blocking Agent in Radiation Emergencies) (PDF - 40 KB).

Potassium Iodide may be recommended for people in the event of a nuclear emergency as it can prevent radioactive iodine from being absorbed. Classed as a metal halide, potassium iodide is a chemical compound that's made from metal ( potassium) and halogen (iodine).Also to treat the thyroid gland, potassium iodide is also often prescribed to treat hyperthyroidism and general iodine deficiency. These extracellular infectious structures may protect viruses from the immune system and enable them to spread efficiently from cell to cell. Administration should take place within 3 hours of a nuclear accident, or up to 10 hours after an accident, however, this is less effective.
