Talk:Iodine-131

Doses make no sense

The dose information on KI and perchlorate make no sense, e.g. talking about mg/dose in terms of ppm, etc.

Do NOT use this page as any sort of dose reference, as the values cited are nonsensical as given, and that immediately makes you question the authenticity and accuracy.

I deleted all the discussion about use of various iodine and perchlorate preparations. They simply do not belong on this page as they are only peripherally related to the isotope. This article should be about I-131, and only I-131. Use of various iodine blocking (I-131 is the most important, but not only, radioiodine of biological importance) treatment should be covered in an article on prophylaxis of radioiodine exposure from environmental sources, not this article.

That isn't to say that the topic isn't of importance, it just belongs someplace other than an article which is OK to mention the medical uses if I-131, but really which should focus on the isotope itself, and save other topics for other articles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DrKC MD (talk • contribs) 00:29, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
