PubMed indexes 4 records that name Amiodarone and Iodine together, either in the title or in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context. Each one is listed below with its study design and, where the abstract states one, the authors’ own conclusion, quoted and linked. This page reports that literature. It does not tell you whether to combine them.
Every statement below is attributed to a named, dated, linked source.
This page lists published research relevant to Amiodarone and Iodine. It deliberately does not state whether the combination is safe, whether it interacts, in which direction, at what dose, or how far apart to take them.
Strongest relevance first: papers naming both substances in the title, then human trials and systematic reviews.
“Pharmacists' misconception concerning iodine allergy and cross-reactivity with amiodarone was evident. Implementation of educational programs targeting pharmacists is necessary to correct these misconceptions.”
Names both Amiodarone and Iodine in its title.
“increased T4, free T4, and rT3 and decreased T3, while remaining clinically euthyroid. The massive increase in available inorganic iodide during amiodarone treatment is probably responsible for the induction of both the hypothyroidism and the thyrotoxicosis that can occur in patients receiving the drug.”
Names both Amiodarone and Iodine in its title.
“Although the potential differences between dronedarone and amiodarone have been evaluated there have been no direct comparison trials published to date. This article reviews the chemistry, antiarrhythmic effects, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, adverse effects and drug interactions of dronedarone.”
Names Amiodarone and Iodine together in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context.
“We review the literature on the mechanisms of the complex drug-drug and drug-disease interactions within the thyroid gland, warfarin, and amiodarone triad. Given that significant thyroid disorders may be only mildly symptomatic and thus may escape clinical detection, we suggest that thyroid function should be tested in any patient with otherwise unexplained changes in warfarin dose requirements, particularly if concomitantly treated with amiodarone.”
Names Amiodarone and Iodine together in an interaction, co-administration, or pharmacokinetic context.
Search-based evidence indexes have real limits, and it is worth being explicit about them:
NutriStack is a free iPhone app for organising a supplement routine: what you take, when, and what the published record says about it. Its exploratory interaction checker covers Amiodarone, Iodine, and several hundred other substances.
The checker is a research and organisation tool, not a clinical decision aid, and its per-pair assessments are excluded from search until they pass claim-level review.
NutriStack is an informational and organizational tool, not a medical service, and not a substitute for professional advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before starting, stopping, or changing any supplement or medication.
