Application

5,7-Diiodo-8-hydroxyquinoline serves primarily as an amoebicidal agent utilized in the treatment of infections such as amoebiasis and balantidiasis, which are caused by protozoa. It is recognized as the preferred medication for addressing asymptomatic or moderate forms of amoebiasis. This compound plays multiple roles, functioning as an antiamoebic, antibacterial, antiseptic, and antiprotozoal agent. While it is effective for treating both acute and chronic intestinal amebiasis, it is not suitable for treating extraintestinal diseases. Notably, due to its relatively high risk of causing optic neuropathy, it is not recommended for routine use in managing traveler's diarrhea. This yellowish to tan, light-sensitive, microcrystalline substance is also known by other names such as 5,7-diiodo-8-quinolinol, diiodohydroxyquin, Yodoxin, Diodoquin, and Diquinol.
