Do you already have our famous Medical Corps-produced KIO3 with two hundred tablets in each bottle? If you do, you still possess the best protection you can get. You don't need to get more unless you want to give KIO3 as a gift or want to maintain a supply for extended family or good neighbors.  

If a radiation emergency is declared, these 85mg tablets can save your life. These FDA approved 85mg tablets contain KIO3 (potassium iodate) which will prevent the human thyroid gland from absorbing cancer-causing radioactive iodine.

Radioactive iodine (I-131) is released by nuclear weapons, nuclear power plant accidents and certain types of "dirty" bombs, depending on their composition.

The World Health Organization, FDA, NRC, and numerous nuclear medicine experts agree that prompt use of KIO3 is the most effective measure to take--in conjunction with evacuation or sheltering--to protect the tens of millions of people who are at risk in the event of a nuclear accident or terrorist act.

This new bottle is formulated for adults, but children can use it too.

Adults take one tablet per day when a nuclear emergency is declared. (See dosing information below)

Children take 1/2 tablet per day when a nuclear emergency is declared.
