Active composition
Povidone Iodine releases iodine, which disrupts microbial protein and nucleic acid synthesis, leading to cell death.
Medical applications
Xepi Scrub PVP is a topical antiseptic solution containing 7.5% w/v povidone iodine, formulated for preoperative skin preparation and general antiseptic cleansing. Povidone iodine is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent effective against a wide range of pathogens, including bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoa. The active compound works by releasing free iodine, which rapidly penetrates microbial cell walls, disrupting protein and nucleic acid structure and function, leading to cell death.
Xepi Scrub PVP is indicated for use in surgical hand scrubs, preoperative skin disinfection, and cleansing of minor wounds, cuts, and abrasions to reduce the risk of infection. Its formulation ensures sustained antimicrobial activity with minimal skin irritation, making it suitable for repeated use. The product should be applied topically to the affected area and allowed to dry before proceeding with surgical procedures or dressing application.
It is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to iodine or povidone iodine and should be used cautiously in individuals with thyroid disorders. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Xepi Scrub PVP is a valuable antiseptic agent in clinical and outpatient settings, contributing to effective infection control and patient safety.
