What does Dronedarone not contain that is noteworthy?

Sodium
Iodine
Potassium
Calcium

The correct answer is: Iodine

Dronedarone does not contain iodine, which is noteworthy because iodine is a component commonly found in medications such as amiodarone. Dronedarone is a non-iodinated derivative of amiodarone and was developed to reduce the potential for iodine-related adverse effects, such as thyroid dysfunction. The other options (sodium, potassium, and calcium) are not typically highlighted as ingredients of concern in relation to dronedarone.
