After the discovery of iodine by Courtois in 1812, this metal was very much in vogue for all the XIXth century for the treatment of numerous diseases. Antoine de Finance (1846-1898), family physician, described iodine and iodine derivatives usage in his own formulary, following the usual contemporary references (Bouchardat, Dorvault). As for those references, iodine was useful for diseases as different as lung diseases, tumors and syphilis but he added angor. As opposed to Bouchardat that used more than 129 formulations for iodine and iodine derivatives, Antoine de Finance is limited to 6 of them. This trend of using iodine for medicine will continue after the XIXth century and will remain essential at the beginning of the XXth century with the discovery of stable iodinated oils such as Lipiodol created in 1901 and first used for syphilis. This therapeutic usage of iodine will remain until today for preventive and curative treatment of iodine deficiency disorders.
1812年库尔图瓦发现碘之后，在整个19世纪，这种金属在治疗多种疾病方面非常流行。家庭医生安托万·德·菲南斯（1846 - 1898）在他自己的配方集里描述了碘及其衍生物的用法，遵循当时常见的参考文献（布沙尔达、多尔沃）。至于那些参考文献，碘对诸如肺部疾病、肿瘤和梅毒等不同疾病有用，但他还补充了心绞痛。与使用129种以上碘及其衍生物配方的布沙尔达不同，安托万·德·菲南斯只限于其中6种。19世纪之后，碘用于医学的这种趋势仍将继续，并且在20世纪初随着1901年发明并首次用于梅毒治疗的稳定碘化油（如碘油）的发现，碘在医学中的应用依然至关重要。碘的这种治疗用途一直持续到今天，用于碘缺乏症的预防和治疗。
