Also, for whomever had the spill. Just use Vitamin C to get it out/off of anything. Works really well. I got it out of carpet by crushing a vitamin C pill and mixing it with water.

It will lose some potency over time, one of the reasons they suggest having the larger amount securely capped and the amount you are using daily (if you use it daily) decanted into a smaller bottle. For my bottle with the dropper - you know the type with the rubber air bulb on top to draw up into the dropper - I just keep several on hand and replace periodically. The chemists will have to give feedback but I would have to suspect that there are likely some plastic compounds in there now. How much and whether this would make it unsafe for your use - whatever that might be - I cannot say.

I bought some Lugols a couple years ago and the container and dropper is a thick plastic. When left in the medicine cabinet in a very cool part of the house, it evaporated from the bottle and stained the inside of the cabinet orange. Afterwards I stored the Lugols bottle inside a glass jar with the top on the jar. The bathroom still has the smell although there is no sign of staining anywhere. I have another iodine in glass bottle with dropper that never escaped into the atmosphere. Thanks, Jess =
