“However, excess iodide (50 or 200 μg KI) did suppress significantly the release of thyroidal radioiodine in all animals receiving small doses (0.1–5 mg) of PTU.”
“The inhibitory effect of excess iodide on thyroidal radioiodine release was studied in more than 300 rats.”
“Sodium, potassium, rubidium, chloride, bromide, iodide ions increased the excretion of radioiodine , while lithium, calcium, ammonium, carbonate and acetate ions did not.”
