Additional Information
To the best of our knowledge, the chemical, physical, and toxicological properties have not
been thoroughly investigated., Prolonged exposure to iodides may produce iodism in
sensitive individuals. Symptoms of exposure include: skin rash, running nose, headache
and irritation of the mucous membrane. For severe cases the skin may show pimples, boils,
hives, blisters and black and blue spots. Iodides are readily diffused across the placenta.
Neonatal deaths from respiratory distress secondary to goiter have been reported. Iodides
have been known to cause drug-induced fevers, which are usually of short duration.,
burning sensation, Cough, wheezing, laryngitis, Shortness of breath, Headache, Nausea,
Vomiting
