About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Wokadine 5% Ointment contains Povidone Iodine 5% w/w, 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 minor wounds, cuts, abrasions, burns, and skin infections by reducing microbial load and promoting a sterile environment conducive to healing. The ointment formulation ensures prolonged contact with the affected area, enhancing antimicrobial efficacy and providing a protective barrier to prevent secondary infections. Wokadine 5% Ointment is suitable for topical application on intact skin and mucous membranes, except in cases of known hypersensitivity to iodine or povidone iodine. It should be applied in a thin layer to the affected area one to three times daily or as directed by a healthcare professional. Caution is advised in patients with thyroid disorders, pregnant or lactating women, and those with extensive wounds or burns due to potential systemic absorption. Adverse effects are rare but may include local irritation, allergic reactions, or staining of the skin. Wokadine 5% Ointment should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
