Lugol's solution is a solution of iodine and potassium iodide in water, named after the French physician Jean Lugol, who formulated it in 1829. Osavita makes the 5% solution in Germany, with raw materials of European Pharmacopoeia quality.

Three ingredients

The solution consists of 5% iodine, 10% potassium iodide and 85% osmosis water. Potassium iodide makes it possible to dissolve elemental iodine in water. It contains no other additives or preservatives.

Iodine per drop

According to Osavita, one drop contains 6.3 mg iodine: 3.8 mg from potassium iodide and 2.5 mg from elemental iodine.

Safe storage

Iodine is sensitive to light. Osavita therefore fills the solution into a brown glass bottle with a glass pipette. Keep the bottle out of the reach of children. Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause damage to organs.

Lugol's solution 5%

Lugol's from Osavita is made according to the original recipe in Germany.

08 / Frequently asked questions

What you still wanted to know.

A solution of iodine and potassium iodide in water, named after the French physician Jean Lugol, who formulated it in 1829. This version contains 5% iodine and 10% potassium iodide.

Elemental iodine dissolves poorly in water. Potassium iodide ensures that the iodine does stay in solution.

No. Osavita products are sold for non-food applications and we give no advice on their use. If you have questions about an application, consult an expert.

Brown glass blocks light, so the substance stays stable. Glass also does not react with the contents, unlike some plastics.
