HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Ionic Iodine 500 PPM by Good State

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: iodine in liquid ionic form at 500 parts per million. The remaining ingredients—reverse osmosis water, fulvic acid, sorbic acid, and ionic iodine (also listed separately)—are inactive components that support delivery and stability of the supplement.

Does it work?

Strong evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: support for healthy thyroid function.
  • We looked for evidence on: Iodine deficiency, Thyroid cancer, Hyperthyroidism, Thyroid storm, Radiation exposure, Thyroid hormones — and 1 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Iodine is rated "Likely Effective" for Radiation exposure (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Iodine is rated "Likely Effective" for Iodine deficiency.
  • Also on file: Iodine is rated "Possibly Effective" for Thyroid storm.

Iodine is likely effective for preventing thyroid problems after radiation exposure and for correcting iodine deficiency. It's possibly effective for oral mucositis (mouth sores) and periodontitis (gum disease), though the evidence for these uses is more limited.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Iodine

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Iodine at normal dietary amounts is well tolerated, but high doses can trigger thyroid problems including overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) or underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism). The most common side effects are abdominal upset, diarrhea, nausea, metallic taste, and headache.

Rarely, iodine can cause allergic reactions ranging from rash to anaphylaxis; if you have a history of iodine hypersensitivity, steer clear. Chronic or very high intake may cause acneform skin lesions (iododerma).

In pregnancy, iodine is necessary for your baby's development, but use only the amount your doctor recommends and avoid high-dose products. During breastfeeding, some iodine passes into breast milk; follow your doctor's guidance to avoid excess.

There isn't enough data on file to know whether this specific product is safe in pregnancy or lactation beyond those general cautions, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist for advice tailored to your situation.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Iodine

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Iodine.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: lithium.
  • For scale: 7 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you're on lithium (risk of worsened underactive thyroid), antithyroid drugs (iodine may alter their effects), or amiodarone (risk of excessive iodine levels). All three require thyroid function monitoring if combined with iodine.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Ionic iodine is a straightforward supplement for preventing or correcting iodine deficiency and for protection after radiation exposure. If you take lithium, antithyroid medications, or amiodarone, you'll need to discuss this supplement with your doctor or pharmacist before starting—the interaction risks are real.

Anyone with a history of iodine sensitivity should avoid it. For everyone else, stick to normal dietary amounts and check in with your own healthcare provider about whether this dose is right for you.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Ionic Iodine 500 PPM with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Iodine3 drug types · 7 drugs

Amiodarone (Cordarone)

Combining iodine with amiodarone might cause excessively high iodine levels.
Amiodarone contains 37.3% iodine and can increase iodine levels. Concomitant use with iodine might increase the risk of having excessive iodine levels and adversely affecting thyroid function. Monitor thyroid function.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Antithyroid Drugs

Iodine might alter the effects of antithyroid drugs.
Iodine in high doses has been reported to cause both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, depending on the individual's past medical history. Taking iodine while using antithyroid drugs could alter the effects of the antithyroid drugs.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Lithium

Combining iodine with lithium might have additive hypothyroid effects.
Lithium can inhibit thyroid function. Several case reports suggest that concomitant use of lithium and potassium iodide can reduce thyroid function in otherwise healthy adults. Monitor thyroid function.

How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Ionic Iodine 500 PPM contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is iodine safe to take during pregnancy?
Iodine is necessary during pregnancy, but use only the amount your doctor advises and avoid high-dose products. There isn't enough data on this specific supplement to know whether it's safe in pregnancy beyond that general guidance, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
What are the most common side effects?
The most common side effects are abdominal upset, diarrhea, nausea, metallic taste, and headache. These are generally mild when iodine is taken in normal amounts.
Can I take this if I have a shellfish allergy?
Most people labeled with "iodine allergy" are actually reacting to shellfish proteins or other agents, not iodine itself. If you have a true history of iodine hypersensitivity (rash, swelling, or severe reactions specifically to iodine products), avoid this supplement. If you're unsure, talk with your doctor or pharmacist.
What is this supplement used for?
Iodine is likely effective for preventing thyroid problems after radiation exposure and for correcting iodine deficiency. It's possibly effective for mouth sores and gum disease, though evidence for those uses is more limited.
How much iodine is in this product compared to my daily need?
The facts don't specify the serving size or how much iodine per serving this 500 PPM liquid contains, so I can't compare it to your daily requirement. Check the label or ask your doctor or pharmacist whether this dose is right for you.
