About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Wokadine 5% Solution contains Povidone Iodine 5% w/v, a broad-spectrum antiseptic agent widely used for skin disinfection and wound management. Povidone Iodine acts by releasing free iodine, which rapidly penetrates microbial cell walls, leading to the disruption of protein and nucleic acid structure and function, thereby exhibiting bactericidal, virucidal, fungicidal, and sporicidal activity. Wokadine 5% Solution is indicated for preoperative skin preparation, treatment of minor wounds, cuts, abrasions, burns, and prevention of infection in superficial skin lesions. It is effective against a wide range of pathogens including gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoa. The solution is applied topically and should be used with caution in patients with iodine sensitivity or thyroid disorders. It is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to iodine or povidone iodine. Adverse effects are rare but may include local irritation, allergic reactions, or staining of the skin. Wokadine 5% Solution should be used as directed by a healthcare professional, avoiding contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Proper wound care and hygiene should be maintained during treatment to optimize healing and prevent secondary infections.
