Why Do I Have Withdrawal Symptoms After Weaning From Iodine Drops?

Posted By Amy (Kennewick, Wa) on 07/29/2016

I have 2% lugols iodine drops. I have been taking 20 drops a day for about 3 months. When I first started I had upset tummy for a few weeks, diarrhea, gassy, bloated. Then it went away and all was well. I recently decided to go down to 15 drops a day because I have read you are not supposed to stay on high doses too long. But as soon as I lowered my dose...for the last couple weeks my stomach feels miserable again...i constantly feel like I have to go diahrea...why is this?
