Composition:
POVIDONE IODINE-5%W/V
Uses:
Skin infections, Cuts, Scrapes, and Burns.
Medicinal Benefits:
Povikem Solution is an antiseptic and disinfectant used to treat and prevent skin infections in minor burns, lacerations (deep cuts in the skin), cuts, and abrasions (the first layer of skin is scraped off). It works by inhibiting the growth of infection-causing microbes. Povikem Solution is effective against bacteria (gram-positive and gram-negative, including antibiotic-resistant and antiseptic-resistant strains), fungi, viruses, and protozoa.
Povikem Solution works by inhibiting the growth of infection-causing microbes. As a small molecule, Iodine in Povikem Solution can easily penetrate microorganisms and oxidises essential proteins, nucleotides, and fatty acids, leading to cell death.
Povikem Solution is for external use only. Do not swallow or put Povikem Solution in the eyes. Please read the instructions leaflet of Povikem Solution carefully before using. Your doctor will decide the dose and duration based on your condition.
Povikem Solution is not recommended for use if you are undergoing any lithium therapy or treatment involving radioactive iodine. Povikem Solution should not be used before or after radioiodine scintigraphy or radioiodine treatment of thyroid carcinoma. In such conditions, please consult your doctor before using Povikem Solution .
Povikem Solution may interfere with thyroid function tests due to iodine absorption. Please consult your doctor before starting Povikem Solution if you have any history of thyroid problems. Povikem Solution may also show false-positive lab results, such as tests with toluidine or gum guaiac, to determine haemoglobin or glucose in the stool or the urine.
Please consult your doctor if you are using any other topical medicines before starting Povikem Solution . However, products containing enzymatic component, alkali, mercury, silver, hydrogen peroxide, tannic acid, and taurolidine may interact with Povikem Solution and should not be used simultaneously.
