Mode of Action

Potassium iodide participates in a complex series of reactions in the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones. When used for hyperthyroidism, it rapidly inhibits the release of thyroid hormones via a direct effect on the thyroid gland and inhibits the synthesis of thyroid hormones. Vascularity of the thyroid gland is reduced. When used in radiation emergencies, oral potassium iodide is admin before or promptly after intake of radioactive iodine, blocks thyroidal uptake of radioactive isotopes of iodine, thereby minimizing the risk of radiation-induced thyroid neoplasms.

Interaction

Concurrent use with antithyroid agents may lead additional hypothyroid effect. Concurrent use with potassium-containing drugs or potassium-sparing diuretics may lead to hyperkalaemia. Potentially Fatal: Concurrent use with lithium salts may lead to additive hypothyroid effect.
