This applies especially to adults and planned iodine treatment, since in this situation with the possibility must be expected to cause a thyroid overactive. Further diagnosis is indicated in the event of suspicion.
- The administration of iodine (especially in high doses) or iodine -containing medication may make a planned treatment of thyroid overfunction, hormone -producing thyroid tumors and malignant thyroid tumors impossible.
- If a malignant thyroid tumor is suspected, iodine gifts should be avoided in any form.
