Warnings and label notes
- If pregnant or nursing, consult your healthcare practitioner before use. Keep out of reach of children. Do not use if you have an iodine sensitivity, or if you are taking anti-hypertension or anti-thyroid medications. Discontinue use if you develop swollen salivary glands, stomach upset, or skin rash.
- See more cautions below.
- More About Suggested Use
- The suggested daily amount is 1-4 tablets/day as recommended by your physician. Work closely with your physician while on the Iodoral® program. Report to your physician any history of thyroid surgery and/or radiation, chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis (Hashimoto's), and any previous problem with your thyroid. Before starting Iodoral®, your physician (He/She = He) will order blood tests for hematology, blood chemistry and thyroid functions. He will also perform an ultrasound of your thyroid to measure the size and appearance of your thyroid. Depending on the results of the thyroid function tests and ultrasound, he may order some blood tests for thyroid antibodies. If you are taking thyroid hormones, let your physician know about it. Be aware that Iodoral® enhances the response of your body to thyroid hormones.*(4,6) Subjects on Iodoral® feel warmer in cold environments and that is expected.* However, you will need to cut down the amount of thyroid hormones if you experience palpitation, anxiety, increased sweating and intolerance to heat. That is because Iodoral® decreases your need for thyroid hormones.* Your physician will guide you in titrating downward the amount of thyroid hormones. Your physician will reevaluate you one month afterward if you are on thyroid hormones, and 3 months if not. Keep a record of what you observe while on Iodoral® and show it to your physician.
- To test whole body sufficiency for iodine, 4 tablets of Iodoral® are ingested, followed by 24 hr. urine collection. The more deficient a subject is in iodine, the more iodine is retained by the body and the least excreted in the urine. Sufficiency is achieved when 90% or more of the ingested amount is excreted in the urine. In most subjects tested, 3-4 tablets of Iodoral®/day were required to achieve whole body sufficiency within 3 months and the body retained approximately 1.5 gm iodine at sufficiency.*(4,8) Check with your physician for more information about the loading test.
- Ingestion of iodine and/or iodide has been associated with certain complaints. If you experience any of the following, stop ingesting Iodoral® and contact your physician:
- Acne-like skin lesions in certain areas of your body
- Headache in the frontal sinus
- Unpleasant brassy taste
- Increased salivation and sneezing
- If you experience any unusual symptom since starting on Iodoral®, contact your physician.

Iodoral 12.5 mg High Potency Iodine (Optimox® Iodoral® 12.5 mg) Details
Clinically inspired iodine and iodide formula to support thyroid hormone production, metabolic balance, and whole-body cellular health.*
What It Does
Iodoral® provides a precise, tablet-form alternative to Lugol solution, delivering molecular iodine and potassium iodide to support optimal thyroid hormone synthesis, energy metabolism, antioxidant protection, and resilience to environmental halogen exposure.* Modeled after iodine intake levels in traditional diets, Iodoral® helps maintain endocrine and immune system balance across multiple organ systems.* ARG offers Iodoral in 6.25 mg, 12.5 mg, and 50 mg strengths.
How It Works
- Iodine & Potassium Iodide: Essential cofactors for the synthesis of thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), which regulate metabolism, energy, and cellular repair throughout the body.* [1-2]
- Lugol-Based Delivery: Iodoral® mirrors the benefits of Lugol solution but in a convenient tablet format that is precisely quantified and well-tolerated.*
- Environmental Detox Support: Iodine competes with halogens like bromine, chlorine, and fluorine, helping the body maintain thyroid health and cellular uptake of iodine in the presence of environmental toxins.* [3-4]
- Antioxidant & Immune Modulation: Iodine contributes to balanced cytokine activity, cellular redox support, and appropriate immune response.* [5-6]
- Inspired by Traditional Diets: Based on the higher iodine consumption seen in seaweed-rich populations such as in Japan, where iodine intake has been linked to favorable health markers.* [7-8]
Who It’s For
Formulated for individuals seeking targeted thyroid support, metabolic resilience, cellular antioxidant protection, and immune balance, particularly in iodine-depleted or halogen-exposed environments.*
Special Features
- Precisely Quantified & Tablet-Based: Iodoral® offers consistent iodine delivery without the variability of liquid Lugol's solution.*
- Well-Tolerated & Convenient: Easy-to-dose format, suitable for long-term use or clinical assessment protocols under practitioner supervision.*
- Broad-Spectrum Cellular Support: Promotes not only thyroid health, but also supports skin, breast, and immune cell function where iodine plays a regulatory role.*
Iodoral® delivers clinically relevant iodine and iodide to promote healthy thyroid hormone levels, metabolic balance, and antioxidant resilience in a stable, well-tolerated tablet form.*
