Povidone Iodine

Ointment

This ointment contains Povidone Iodine, a broad-spectrum antiseptic effective against bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoa. It works by slowly releasing free iodine, which penetrates microbial cells and destroys essential proteins and nucleic acids. The formulation provides strong antimicrobial protection, helps prevent infection, and promotes faster healing of wounds while maintaining a hygienic environment at the application site.
