A dermal solution of povidone-iodine (PVP-I), which is a complex that releases iodine, the active bactericidal and virucidal agent, increasing its activity and stability, and reducing its irritating effects.
PVP-I has a wide antimicrobial spectrum against bacteria, fungi, viruses, as well as bacterial spores. Used as an antiseptic for skin ulcers, wounds, burns, bedsores, skin and mucosa before and after surgeries, to prevent skin infections, and gynecological infections such as gonorrhea, cervical and vaginal infections (vaginal douche after being diluted with water).
