Can I use a combination of iodine solution to treat hyperthyroidism?

Yes, this medicine has a certain effect on hyperthyroidism, but it must be used according to the doctor's instructions, and you can't use it indiscriminately.

Yes, medically this solution has an effect on the suppression of thyroid hormones and can promote decomposition.

Compound iodine solution is the raw material for the breakdown of thyroid hormones. It can be used to prevent simple goiter, inhibit thyroid hormone release, **thyroid storm. Low-dose compound iodine solution can promote the breakdown and excretion of thyroid hormones and can be used for simple goiter.

Answer]: A analysis: Compound iodine solution is only used for preoperative preparation for hyperthyroidism and hyperthyroidism. Master the knowledge of "Hyperthyroidism Drugs and Surgery**".

The antithyroid effect of high-dose iodine is fast and strong, with an onset of effect in 1 2 days and a maximum effect in 10 to 15 days. However, when the intracellular iodine ion concentration of acinar increases to a certain extent, the cellular iodine uptake will automatically decrease, so that the intracellular iodine ion concentration will decrease, thus losing the effect of inhibiting hormone synthesis, which is why iodide cannot be used alone in hyperthyroidism**.

Hello, this ** is equivalent to radiotherapy, iodine 131 belongs to a radioactive element, which has an obvious killing effect on cells, etc., and belongs to radiation damage.

After a period of antithyroid drugs** before surgery, the symptoms of hyperthyroidism are relieved and the serum T3 and T4 levels return to normal.

1) Patients with mild and moderate hyperfunction should take compound iodine solution as follows.

On the first day, 5 drops each time, 3 times a day; On the second day, 6 drops each time, 3 times a day; On the third day, 7 drops each time, 3 times a day; On the fourth day, 8 drops each time, 3 times a day; On the fifth day, 9 drops each time, 3 times a day; On the sixth day, 10 drops each time, 3 times a day; On the seventh day, 11 drops each time, 3 times a day; On the eighth day, 12 drops each time, 3 times a day; On the ninth day, 13 drops each time, 3 times a day; On the 10th day, 14 drops each time, 3 times a day; On the 11th day, take 15 drops 3 times daily.

After that, the number of drops will not be increased, and it will still be maintained 3 times a day until the day of surgery, and the total number of days of iodine will not exceed two weeks.

2) Patients with severe hyperthyroidism, if the symptoms are not alleviated with iodine, thiouracil drugs can be taken, and the preparation time is generally not less than two months. Commonly used are: propylthiouracil or methiocalacil, 2 3 times a day, 100 200mg each time, after taking it for 2 3 weeks, if the condition improves, the basal metabolic rate is reduced, the dosage can be reduced, changed to 100mg 3 times a day; methimazole is 10 mg 3 times a day, and changed to 5 mg 2 3 times a day after symptoms are reduced.

Iodine is added 2 to 3 weeks before surgery, and thiouracil is discontinued after one week of overlapping. Iodine should not be taken for too long, so it is necessary to wait until the symptoms of thiouracil have basically improved and the basal metabolic rate has dropped to near normal.

It should also be noted that those who are preparing with thiouracil should have their leukocytes checked 1 2 times a week.

How to prepare for hyperthyroidismPatients with hyperthyroidism heart disease should use thiouracil drugs for preoperative preparation.

After 2 months of medication, if the cardiac condition does not improve significantly, you can continue to take it, and if you have heart failure, you should use digitalis drugs with caution according to the heart failure routine**.

After proper preoperative preparation, the heart rate dropped to less than 100 beats per minute, and it was relatively stable and did not fluctuate much; Basal metabolic rate drops below +15%; weight gain, emotional stability, palpitations, shortness of breath, sweating and heat intolerance and other symptoms disappear or improve significantly; When the thyroid gland becomes smaller, hardens, tremors disappear, and murmurs disappear or are significantly reduced, iodine is ready for surgery.

Diagnosis of definitive hyperthyroidism,** is not difficult. The most commonly used method is to take antithyroid drugs (such as methimazole, etc.), generally speaking, the effect is relatively reliable, but it also has shortcomings: first, it requires a long period of continuous medication, and the dose adjustment is more complicated, not easy to master, and often easy**; Second, there are often different degrees of ***, such as:

Leukopenia, drug eruption, stomach and intestinal reactions, nausea, etc. For this reason, medical scientists are always looking for a more ideal**. With the progress of science and technology, radioactive 131 iodine one-time oral tablets came into being, and some experts believe that it has the advantages of simplicity, safety, economy and remarkable efficacy.

The so-called 131 iodine once oral tablets are for patients with hyperthyroidism after being examined by the hospital and making the necessary preparations, as long as 131 iodine is taken orally once, the symptoms will begin to reduce in 1 2 weeks, and gradually heal. The principle of this ** is that although 131 iodine is also an iodine element, it is produced by a nuclear reactor and can emit rays, which belongs to the radioactive iodine element. When the patient ingests 131 iodine, it is rapidly concentrated in the thyroid gland like ordinary iodine, and uses the rays it releases to gradually destroy the proliferative thyroid tissue, and the production of thyroxine is also reduced, so as to achieve the purpose of **, a bit like the nature of biological missiles.

It is reported that more than one million patients with hyperthyroidism have received this kind of ** worldwide. According to the data of some domestic hospitals, the effective rate of using 131 iodine** hyperthyroidism is as high as 98%; The first-time ** rate also reached 70% to 80%. The most appreciative thing is that in the whole process, the vast majority of patients have no obvious toxic side effects; Even if there is a reaction in an individual patient, most of them are mild and do not affect it after taking simple measures**.

If oral administration fails to ** once, it can be repeated many times. Of course, a very small number of people with special allergies to iodine, as well as pregnant and lactating women, are prohibited.

Hyperthyroidism is a hypermetabolic syndrome caused by the synthesis and release of excessive thyroid hormones by the thyroid gland, resulting in hypermetabolism and sympathetic nerve excitation.

At present, the best ways of hyperthyroidism include drugs, radioactive iodine, traditional surgery, immune intervention repair and other methods, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, it is recommended to follow the doctor's advice and take appropriate methods to get rid of the disease as soon as possible and get back to health.

First of all, compound iodine oral solution is a drug prepared before hyperthyroidism surgery, its principle is that a large amount of iodine intake will inhibit the production of thyroid hormone, which is a negative feedback principle, and can reduce thyroid congestion, which is conducive to surgery, so compound iodine oral solution can only be used for preoperative preparation (and hyperthyroid crisis) and not for routine **.

Secondly, the iodine you mentioned for **hyperthyroidism should refer to radioactivity**, because as a drug, iodine oral solution will not be used**, and the purpose of this radioactive ** is to damage the thyroid gland.

In addition, the ** supplemented with iodine is a simple goiter, not hyperthyroidism, and the two are fundamentally different.

I don't know if mine can make it clear to you.

Hello, you can take antithyroid drugs by mouth under the guidance of your doctor, the most commonly used are methimazole (also known as methimazole) and propylthiouracil. These two drugs** hyperthyroidism are effective, safe, non-invasive, economical, convenient, easy to buy, and can be used by children, adults, elderly patients and pregnant or lactating patients. They do not worsen hyperthyroidism, do not cause permanent hypothyroidism (hypothyroidism), and are effective in controlling hyperthyroidism.

Antithyroid drugs provide remission in 40% to 60% of patients with hyperthyroidism. The main disadvantages are: ** rate up to 60% 80%.

There are many drugs, including drug eruption, leukopenia, liver function damage, agranulocytosis, etc., with an incidence of 5% to 30%. Severe disease can cause the patient to die, and blood images, liver function and other indicators need to be monitored during the process. An overdose of antithyroid drugs can cause hypothyroidism.

The course of treatment is long, it takes ** years, and the condition is easy to recur during the drug reduction process. Among the foods that are eaten daily, kelp, seaweed, sea cabbage, marine fish, shrimp, crab, and shellfish are rich in iodine. Excess iodine is detrimental to the condition and manifests itself as:

1) Aggravation of hyperthyroidism: Since iodine is the main raw material for the manufacture of thyroid hormones, long-term use of iodine can aggravate hyperthyroidism, and even iodine-derived hyperthyroidism can occur.

2) Unfavorable to **: Eating too much iodine may also harden the thyroid tissue, causing the disease to be prolonged and not healing, affecting antithyroid drugs**, iodine overdose prolongs the time of hyperthyroidism, decreases the rate, and the ** drug of antithyroid drugs for hyperthyroidism drops to 20% 35% after excessive iodine supplementation.

Therefore, patients with hyperthyroidism should avoid eating iodine-containing foods such as kelp, seaweed, and marine fish, and iodine-containing traditional Chinese medicines such as seaweed and kelp should be prohibited. Patients should consume non-iodized salt. If it is iodized salt, the iodized salt should be fried at high temperature for a period of time before consumption to allow the iodine to volatilize.

Attention should be paid to the following during the period of taking the drug and in the diet

1) Taboo spicy food: spicy seeds, raw onions, raw garlic;

2) Forbidden seafood: kelp, shrimp, hairtail;

3) Strong tea, coffee, tobacco and alcohol are contraindicated;

4) Keep your mind calm and prevent fatigue.

Iodine-131 is like this, and many patients with hyperthyroidism have hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism is more troublesome, and it is not as good as hyperthyroidism. Go to the hospital to find a Chinese medicine expert to dialectically for you** can get results.

Good luck with you**.

Traditional Chinese medicine generally does not contain iodine, unless there is some seaweed, you just don't eat it. You have to be positive**, and you have to look for iodized salt, because you have iodine hyperthyroidism!
