is this liquid form preferable over tablets like iodoral? if so why?

Short answer is the flexability of dosage. Iodoral and Lugols are the same thing. One is in pill form the other is in liquid. Curezone is a board that has a lot of info about Iodine and that is where I found most of my info.

its just a personal preference the wider mouth makes it easier to drink out of in my opinion and its easier to clean and put powders into. While the smaller mouth collapses better for when you are not using the bottle.

I simply prefer the liquid form because its easier to work with. When using the aerosol its very hard to control the amount dispensed.

I'm sorry I don't really know the difference unless derived from a food source. I researched as best one can on the internet and really enjoyed J.Crow's website and that made me decide to get the Lugol's solution of this brand. The price and shipping was better than I could get locally. It is almost time again to purchase a bottle, it certainly lasted since I only take 2-3 drops in my orange juice each morning. Did it make a difference? that is debatable since I am still testing at the same levels, and my Synthroid rx dosage has not changed. http://www.jcrows.com/msds2.pdf

I have to say it is not easy to dissolve in water compare to other formula(eg aptamil)

Yes, Deborah it is the liquid form of ubiquinol which is many times more absorbable than the standard ubiquonone form of coq10. Just remember to take it every day as it takes up to a week to get into your system to aid in your cellular activity in being more efficient.

I have talked with the tech support on the phone and was told that all the formulas are same in terms of active ingredients, they are just labeled differently for different uses. Some people/contexts need specifically labeled products. There are differences in thickness in some of the products. There is the spray which is pure liquid, the hydrogel which is a light gel, the opthalmalgic formula which is extremely thick (and hurts like HECK in the eye, much prefer the hydrogel or liquid for the eye). Those are the ones I know. There is another question here about which formula is best for what, and that is a very valuable discussion, many of the answers contain valuable animal care insights. What I don't know is if the "Hot Spot" formula is the pure liquid or the gel (in terms of getting what they consider to be the best thickness for that use). You could call their Tech Support and ask them-- they were very friendly to me. But yes, the 16oz is the best deal and has the trigger sprayer which is so much easier to operate, especially when your hands are slippery. I also use this product on myself, they make a whole line for human use but it is ALL the same thing.

They changed the formulation about 6 months ago. The new version is a better source of iodine and actually has 50% more iodine in it per drop.

Optimox doesn't even carry Iodoral/sell Iodoral on their own website any longer without any explanation. Something shady is going on. I was able to buy a 180 count bottle from Lucky Vitamin for $37.99.

Its more gel like. Not real watery, I can actually use the dropper and apply to face and it won't run down too fast.

You can buy 2 bottles of Iodoral 50 mg, 90 tablets each, for $118 (total 180 tablets!) at iherb.com plus free shipping.

I know that in general pill form will have to get through more process and probably will have more additives, thus as a result less pure. I am sure you get some benefit from the pill. However, this is very powerful product in liquid form. Personally I have been using it for years. Now I do not have to use it on regular basis. and it taste very good when you put in water, if you like use hot water and drink like a tea. Just a thought. (:

It is exactly the same application as Muro 128 as far as being used at night for Dry Eye Syndrome. We are not absolutely sure, it felt like there might be a very little higher salt content? I don't have the tubes here right now to compare the numbers. The eye doctor prescribed them straight across. My wife used it with good results.

I have had both, and found that the gel is more plyable and forms to your body more efficiently. It also holds up much better keeping it's (shape) better. I have had mine for 4 years and it is still great. I go to visit my children every year staying for a month. I ordered this one to have delivered to their house so it could be put on my bed there.

Yes, just discovered there an advantage to using the 5% instead of just twice as much 2%. Reason would only be if using topically (vs orally).- I am noticing that only so much Iodine gets absorbed into certain infections, so a 5% strength will be more potent.
