This paper investigates the existence of the extremal solutions to the integral boundary value problem for first-order impulsive functional integrodifferential equations with deviating arguments under the assumption of existing upper and lower solutions in the reversed order. The sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions were obtained by establishing several new comparison principles and using the monotone iterative technique. At last, a concrete example is presented and solved to illustrate the obtained results.
