<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi everyone This is a question for people with Dermatitis Herpetiformis. I have read that people with DH cannot take iodine/potassium iodide tablets. The preventative treatment to stop you absorbing radiation in the event of a leak (terrorism to a nuclear plant, accident etc) is Potassium Iodide tablets. I have read that these are not suitable for people with Dermatitis Herpetiformis, does anyone know whether there is an alternative treatment? I would like to find out in advance of such an emergency if there is any treatment recommended for us DH sufferers. Thanks Kristina
