Properties and benefits of Iodine potassium iodide

Potassium iodide is rapidly absorbed from the intestinal tract, reaching the maximum concentration after 2 hours. The presence of food in the stomach can delay absorption by 10 to 15 minutes.

Once absorbed, it is rapidly distributed through the extracellular fluid and is concentrated in the thyroid, where the entry is mediated by the amount of sodium-iodine, in the salivary glands, gastric mucosa and cerebrospinal fluid. It crosses the placental barrier and is secreted in breast milk.

The main route of elimination of potassium iodide is the urine. Renal excretion is rapid in the first hours, reaching a plateau at 24-48 hours. The rest is eliminated through sweat, feces and breast milk.
