[Rationale for treating patients with hypertension and atherosclerosis of the lower extremities with iodine-bromine baths containing molecular iodine].
Higher therapeutic efficacy of iodine-bromine baths in conversion of iodine from an ionic form (standard iodine-bromine baths) into a molecular one is registered. This is explained by a 23.8 times increase in precipitation and a 4-times increase in iodine penetration into the body when it is molecular. A more effective function of the cardiovascular system, a stronger corrective effect on lipid metabolism, microcirculation in the absence of changes in a secretory function of the thyroid were registered.
