Fiasp is used to improve blood sugar control in adults and children with diabetes mellitus. Fiasp is sometimes used together with a long-acting or intermediate-acting insulin.

Strong iodine is used to treat overactive thyroid, iodine deficiency, and to protect the thyroid gland from the effects of radiation from radioactive forms of iodine. It may be used before and after administration of a radioactive medicine containing radioactive iodine or after accidental exposure to radiation (for example, from nuclear power plant accidents). It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.
