Prophylaxis by Administration of Stable Iodine: Principle, Evolution and Recommendations
DOI:
10.37871/jbres1996
Abstract
Prophylaxis by stable iodine “KI 65 mg, breakable tablet†is a pharmacological countermeasure of radiological protection adapted for the prevention of thyroid cancer after exposure to radioactive iodine. A first modification of the marketing authorization of “KI 65 mg, breakable tablet†for repeated prophylaxis for adults and children above 12 years old was obtained in France in 2020. At this point in time, the recommendation of a unique “KI†intake by pregnant and breastfeeding women and children below 12 years old remain valid.
