Povidone Iodine (5%)
Active composition
Povidone Iodine releases iodine, which disrupts microbial protein and nucleic acid synthesis, leading to cell death.
Medical applications
Wokadine 5% Dusting Powder contains Povidone Iodine 5%, a broad-spectrum antiseptic agent effective against a wide range of pathogens including bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoa. It is primarily indicated for the prevention and treatment of superficial skin infections, minor cuts, abrasions, burns, and surgical wounds. The powder formulation facilitates ease of application, promotes drying of moist areas, and reduces the risk of secondary infections by maintaining a clean and antiseptic environment on the skin surface. Povidone Iodine acts by releasing free iodine, which penetrates microbial cell walls, disrupting protein and nucleic acid synthesis, leading to microbial cell death. Wokadine 5% Dusting Powder is suitable for use in both hospital and community settings for wound care and infection control. It is generally well tolerated; however, hypersensitivity reactions may occur in iodine-sensitive individuals. Caution is advised in patients with thyroid disorders or those undergoing radioiodine therapy. The product should be applied to the affected area in a thin layer, avoiding contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Regular use as directed can aid in effective wound management and reduce the risk of infection-related complications.
