Plug it the rest of the way, Harvey: where can one get it?

I've been concerned for some time about the long term effects of drinking
iodine-flushed water from my PUR field pump. There's an activated carbon
postfilter that takes some of it out, but I have wondered about longterm
deleterious effects of using it as a primary potable water source in extremis
for weeks on end.
