   Lugol's iodine is a liquid made up of two parts potassium iodide for every one part elemental iodine in water. [8] Lugol's iodine was first made in 1829 by the French physician Jean Lugol. [7] [8] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines. [9] [10] Lugol's iodine is available as a generic medication and over the ...

3. Triiodide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triiodide

   Lugol's iodine contains potassium iodide and a stoichiometric amount of elemental iodine, so that significant amounts of triiodide ion exist in this solution. Tincture of iodine, although nominally a solution of elemental iodine in ethanol, also contains significant amounts of triiodide, due to its content of both iodide and water.

4. Tincture of iodine - Wikipedia

   Purified water is 50 mL and the balance is alcohol. This 7% tincture solution is about 3.5 times more concentrated than USP 2% tincture. [citation needed] As in the case of Lugol's iodine, the role of iodide in the solution is to increase the solubility of the elemental iodine, by turning it to the soluble triiodide anion I 3 −. However ...

5. Iodine (medical use) - Wikipedia

   Tincture of iodine: iodine in ethanol, or iodine and sodium iodide in a mixture of ethanol and water. Lugol's iodine: iodine and iodide in water alone, forming mostly triiodide. Unlike tincture of iodine, Lugol's iodine has a minimised amount of the free iodine (I 2) component. Iodine glycerin, a preparation used in dentistry.

6. Potassium iodide - Wikipedia

   [17] [16] Potassium iodide can be administered as tablets or as Lugol's iodine solution. [16] The same dosage is recommended by the US Food and Drug Administration. [18] A single daily dose is typically sufficient for 24-hour protection. [16] However, in cases of prolonged or repeated exposure, health authorities may recommend multiple daily ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melzer's_reagent

   Melzer's reagent is an aqueous solution of chloral hydrate, potassium iodide, and iodine.Depending on the formulation, it consists of approximately 2.50-3.75% potassium iodide and 0.75–1.25% iodine, with the remainder of the solution being 50% water and 50% chloral hydrate.
