Since Iodine and iodide can alter thyroid function; caution is recommended in patients with thyroid disease, over 45 years of age, or with goiter. Although iodine is required for the production of thyroid hormones, excessive amounts can cause hyperthyroidism or even paradoxical goiter and hypothyroidism. In pediatric patients, use only when clearly needed and under medical supervision. It is advisable to avoid the use of gargle preparations in children, who are almost never able to gargle without swallowing a large portion of the preparation. The medicine should not be used in adolescent patients due to the potential for acne and its effects on the thyroid. Discontinue treatment at least 10 days before undergoing a radioactive iodine scan. Treatment may alter the results of thyroid function tests, especially in premature infants. Important information about some of the excipients: The product contains ethanol (alcohol), in quantities up to 100 mg per dose.
