US Pharm. 2011;36(6):HS-25-HS-28. Potassium iodide (KI) is an inorganic compound that is available from three manufacturers under different brand names as an antidote to radiation exposure. From a chemistry point of view, it is made from potassium hydroxide and iodine, and it is the most produced iodide compound in the world.
The thyroid gland is the part of the body that is most sensitive to radioactive iodine. People should take KI (potassium iodide) only on the advice of public health or emergency management officials. There are health risks associated with taking KI.hen a person takes KI, the stable iodine in the medicine gets absorbed by the thyroid. Because KI contains so much stable iodine, the thyroid gland becomes âfullâ and cannot absorb any more iodineâeither stable or radioactiveâfor the next 24 hours.
