Abstract

Potassium iodide was given to 17 cases of Basedow's disease in comparison to 12 normal controls for 5 weeks. In the thyrotoxic patients, the maximum decrease in serum T3 and T4 levels was observed 2 and 3 weeks, respectively, but in some cases remained normal even at 5 weeks. The euthyroid persons showed a small decrease in T4 and T3 and an increase in serum TSH.
