Their studies failed to include Iodoxyquinoline sulphonic acid (Chiniofon) also known as Anayodin or Yatren. Likewise, Diodoquin was not given in its recommended therapeutic dosage; therefore, the blood iodine levels and toxicity were not determined at therapeutic levels. Toxicity studies revealed both Vioform and Diodoquin to be relatively safe drugs since the recommended full therapeutic dosage in the thinnest individual is not over 8 mg. per kg. of Vioform and 30 mg. per kg. of Diodoquin. The lethal...Bibliography1. DAVIDPHATAKZENER NANMFB: Iodochlorhydroxyquinoline and diiodohydroxyquinoline; animal toxicity and absorption in man, Am. Jr. Trop. Med., 1944, xxiv, 29-33.
