PubMed indexes 8 records that name Iodine and Lithium 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 Iodine and Lithium. 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.
“The observational trials demonstrated significant improvement in the cure rate of hyperthyroidism when lithium is added to RAI. The improvements shown in the interventional trials did not reach statistical significance due to the effect of a single, large negative trial.”
Names both Iodine and Lithium in its title.
“Thus, IDLC demonstrates non-specific cytotoxicity at high concentrations, consistent with its iodine content. The research confirms that iodine can be effectively stabilized within a dextrin-lithium framework to yield a biologically active, thermally resistant complex, suitable for pharmaceutical use.”
Names both Iodine and Lithium in its title.
“The I2 /HOF@Ti3 C2 Tx exhibits large reversible capacities of 260.2 and 207.6 mAh g-1 at 0.2 C after repeated cycling for Li-I2 and Na-I2 batteries, respectively. This work can gain insights into the HOF-related energy storage application with reversible iodine encapsulation and its related redox reaction mechanisms with Li and Na metal ions.”
Names both Iodine and Lithium in its title.
“A fuel cell with such an electrode and a lithium-iodine cathode shows impressive long-term stability with a capacity retention of around 100% over 4000 cycles and enhanced high-rate capability. These results demonstrate the promising applications of 3D stable lithium metal anodes in next-generation rechargeable batteries.”
Names both Iodine and Lithium in its title.
“Li-SES and iodine are then electrochemically generated during charge as is confirmed by UV-VIS and a qualitative test. We have also conducted proof-of-concept tests for an "indirect lithium-air" cell in which iodine is reduced at the cathode and subsequently is catalytically re-oxidized by oxygen dissolved in the catholyte.”
Names both Iodine and Lithium in its title.
“For the demonstration of application, soft-package batteries with Al-plastic film were assembled, displaying energy densities of 475 Wh/kg by mass of Li and iodine, and 136 Wh/kg by total mass of the battery. The use of nanoporous carbon to adsorb iodine at room-temperature represents a new and promising direction for realizing high-performance cathode for rechargeable Li-iodine batteries.”
Names both Iodine and Lithium in its title.
“RAI therapy combined with lithium showed a trend towards higher cure rate, safe and time to cure was less than RAI alone. Hence RAI combined with lithium is a better option in the management of hyperthyroidism than RAI alone.”

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 Iodine, Lithium, 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.
