Inadine Non-Adherent Dressing for use on Superficial Wounds. The INADINE dressing may be used for acute superficial wounds, even if infected, and for the prevention of infection in minor burns, minor traumatic skin loss injuries and as part of the treatment for ulcerative wounds and it provides a long lasting antiseptic effect, which manages infection by bacterial, protozoal and fungal organisms over a period of time.
Inadine dressing is a topical wound dressing impregnated with an ointment containing 10% povidone iodine (PVP-I). The dressing also contains polyethylene glycol and purified water as inactive ingredients.
The povidone molecule provides a sustained release of iodine. The polyethylene glycol provides a water-soluble environment, which allows the iodine to reach the bacteria in the wound. The povidone iodine in INADINE dressing is the broadest spectrum antiseptic for human use.
