Lo ioduro di potassio è un composto chimico formato da potassio e ioduro.

Medicina.

Viene impiegato contro le infezioni fungine (1), contro la Sporotricosi felina che è una malattia endemica a Rio de Janeiro, in Brasile, in cui la trasmissione zoonotica di Sporothrix spp. è stata individuata nel 1998 (2) e meglio nota come "malattia di Gardener" o Sporotricosi cutanea, che può essere contratta nelle foreste dell'Amazzonia, come in questo caso, da un turista in un'escursione in quelle foreste (3).
