Description: IOSAT Potassium Iodide Tablets 130 MG 14 Tablets with Rad Triage 50 Radiation Detector Card, Authorized Dealer, Fast Free Shipping New!! RAD Triage 50 Personal Radiation Detector for Wallet or PocketAuthorized Dealer, Free Shipping The RADTriage Radiation Detector is a U.S. Military-grade personal dosimeter that instantly detects radiation exposure in the event of a dirty bomb, nuclear reactor accident such as Fukushima and Chernobyl and other sources of radiation. This always-on wallet card/badge radiation detector does not require batteries or calibration. The sensor strip instantly turns darker when it detects harmful levels of radiation. The latest version, Model 50 (this model), begins alerting at 50 mSv. Fits in wallet or badge holder.Instant detection of radiation from sources such as nuclear reactors, nuclear weapons fallout and dirty bombsMade in the U.S.A | U.S. Military-grade and field tested and approved by U.S Dept of Homeland SecurityShelf-life may be extended up to 10 years by storing in the freezer. Once removed it will have a usable life of at least two years.No batteries or calibration needed | Impervious to an EMP Bomb (electromagnetic pulse) RADTriage50Instantly detects elevated levels of radiation from a terrorist event, nuclear incident and medical or industrial accident.Prior to RADTriage50 there was a technological gap in dosimetry for instantly monitoring medically significant doses of radiation exposure.RADTriage50 OVERVIEWIn the event of a radiological incident such as, a terrorist dirty bomb, rouge state action, nuclear power plant accident like Chernobyl or Fukushima - an accurate, easy-to-read dosimeter, like RADTriage50, is the first thing everyone needs.The sensor of the RADTriage50 dosimeter instantly develops color and the color intensifies with an increase in radiation dose. The dosimeter monitors only medically significant doses (50-10,000 mSv).The color development from exposure is cumulative and irreversible, this is especially important for individuals exposed to repeated diagnostic imaging or radiation exposure. The exposed radiation dose can be easily estimated by matching the color of the sensor with that of the adjacent color reference bars. The RADTriage50 dosimeter has a usable period of two years from issue date that may be extended up to 7 years if stored at 5°C and 10 years in a freezer at 0°C or below.RADTriage50 IS THE PERFECT RADIATION DOSIMETER SOLUTION FOR:First respondersMilitary personnelNuclear power plantsResidents living near nuclear power plantsAirline crew and personnelAnyone living in a location at high risk of terrorist activity or worried about radiation exposure.EASY TO CARRY EASY TO USEFits wallet or badge holderCredit card size: 3 3/8” x 2 1/8”No batteries or calibration neededFits in Card HolderIs this one time use only?Yes, It is my understanding that it is like the paper test strips used to check Ph. once the card has been exposed to the radiation then then it does not reset. It is important that your protect the card. I have read that some store it in the freezer frozen in a block of ice. This makes sense, water acts somewhat as a radiation shield.IOSATIosat Potassium Iodide has been FDA approved since 1982. Radioactive iodine can travel hundreds of miles downwind, such as it did after the Chernobyl and Fukushima disasters. The thyroid is the only part of the body that absorbs and stores iodine. By taking FDA approved potassium iodide prior to exposure of radioactive iodine, your thyroid will become saturated with safe, stable iodine. This will prevent your thyroid’s absorption of any additional iodine (radioactive or not) long enough for the radioactive iodine inhaled or ingested to be safely dispersed through the kidneys.From the ManufactureriOSAT™ Tablets130 mg. potassium iodide per tablet14 tablets per packageHow Potassium Iodide WorksCertain forms of iodine help your thyroid gland work right. Most people get the iodine they need from foods like iodized salt or fish. The thyroid can “store” or hold only a certain amount of iodine.In a radiation emergency, radioactive iodine may be released in the air. This material may be breathed or swallowed. It may enter the thyroid gland and damage it. The damage would probably not show itself for years. Children are most likely to have thyroid damage.If you take potassium iodide, it will fill up your thyroid gland. This reduces the chance that harmful radioactive iodine will enter the thyroid gland.Who Should Not Take Potassium IodideThe only people who should not take potassium iodide are people who know they are allergic to iodide. You may take potassium iodide even if you are taking medicines for a thyroid problem (for example, a thyroid hormone or antithyroid drug). Pregnant and nursing women and babies and children may also take this drug.How And When To Take Potassium IodidePotassium iodide should be taken as soon as possible after public health officials tell you. You should take one dose every 24 hours. More will not help you because the thyroid can “hold” only limited amounts of iodine. Larger doses will increase the risk of side effects. You will probably be told not to take the drug for more than 10 days.Side EffectsUsually side effects of potassium iodide happen when people take higher doses for a long time. You should be careful not to take more than the recommended dose or take it for longer than you are told. Side effects are unlikely because of the low dose and the short time you will be taking the drug.Possible side effects include skin rashes, swelling of the salivary glands, and “iodism” (metallic taste, burning mouth and throat, sore teeth and gums, symptoms of a head cold, and sometimes stomach upset and diarrhea).A few people have an allergic reaction with more serious symptoms. These could be fever and joint pains, or swelling of parts of the face or body and at times severe shortness of breath requiring immediate medical attention.Taking iodide may rarely cause overactivity of the thyroid gland, underactivity of the thyroid gland, or enlargement of the thyroid gland (goiter).What To Do If Side Effects OccurIf the side effects are severe or if you have an allergic reaction, stop taking potassium iodide. Then, if possible, call a doctor or public health authority for instructions.How SuppliedIOSAT Tablets (Potassium Iodide Tablets, U.S.P.): packages of 14 tablets (NDC51803-001-01): Each white, round, scored tablet contains 130 mg. potassium iodide.
