E-DRUG: Lugol's Solution effectiveness in thyroid treatment (2)
-------------------------------------------------

Dear Kae

If you check the WHO Medicines Library at:
http://mednet3.who.int/EMLib/DiseaseTreatments/MedicineDetails.aspx?MedI
DName=173@iodine [repair link]
you will find links to 3 current Cochrane reviews of evidence about the
use of iodine. 
The specific formulation that is most useful, unfortunately cannot be
readily identified on the basis of the current information.

Best Wishes
