He made his findings public on July 21, 1820, in an article entitled Mémoire sur la découverte d'un nouveau remède contre le goître in Geneva. This was only 9 years after the initial discovery of iodine and Coindet in total wrote a series of three articles in 1820 and 1821 on the topic of iodine treatment of goitre
In 1823, Coindet established the Medical Society of Geneva together with his son.
