Abstract

This report describes a case of an equine presenting classic clinical signs and hormonal profile related to primary hypothyroidism due to the continued systemic administration of 60g/day of potassium iodate. Remission of the problem required the elimination of iodine source, which led to a gradual reduction in the clinical manifestation. This case report contribute with the iatrogenic hypothyroidism study in adult horses and warn veterinarians to the possible undesirable collateral effects of iodine therapies.
