IOSAT Potassium Iodide 14 Tablets - Emergency Radiation P...

Product Overview

IOSAT Potassium Iodide tablets are an essential emergency preparedness item designed to protect the thyroid gland from radioactive iodine exposure. In the event of a nuclear incident, radioactive iodine can be released into the air and inhaled or ingested, increasing the risk of thyroid cancer, especially in children. By saturating the thyroid with stable, non-radioactive iodine, IOSAT helps block the absorption of harmful radioactive iodine, reducing the risk of thyroid damage. Each tablet contains 130 mg of potassium iodide, the FDA-recommended dosage for adults and children over 12 years old. This pack of 14 tablets provides a 14-day supply, which is the standard recommended duration for continuous protection after a nuclear event.

Key Features and Benefits

• 130 mg Potassium Iodide per Tablet: The exact dosage recommended by the FDA for adult thyroid blocking.
• 14-Tablet Supply: Covers the typical 14-day period of highest risk after a nuclear incident.
• Easy to Take: Tablets are small and easy to swallow, or can be crushed and mixed with food or drink for children.
• Long Shelf Life: Store in a cool, dry place; check expiration date for best results.
• Trusted Brand: ANBEX is a reputable manufacturer of emergency preparedness products.

How to Use

IOSAT should only be taken when directed by public health officials during a nuclear emergency. Do not take as a preventative measure. The typical dosage for adults and children over 12 years is one 130 mg tablet per day. For children under 12, dosage may be adjusted based on weight, and the tablet can be crushed to make it easier to ingest. Take with water, preferably on an empty stomach for faster absorption. Continue daily until the risk of exposure has passed, typically up to 14 days.

Who It Is For

IOSAT is for anyone living within 10-50 miles of a nuclear power plant, or those who want to be prepared for nuclear emergencies. It is particularly important for families with children, as children are more susceptible to radioactive iodine's harmful effects. It is also recommended for emergency responders and healthcare workers who may be exposed during a nuclear incident.
