Benefits:
- Antimicrobial Action: Cadexomer Iodine has potent antimicrobial properties, making it effective against a wide range of bacteria, viruses, and fungi. It helps prevent and treat infections in wounds.
- Wound Healing: ADDEX OINTMENT promotes wound healing by creating an environment that supports tissue repair. It may help reduce inflammation and accelerate the formation of granulation tissue.
- Absorption of Exudate: The ointment helps manage excessive wound exudate (fluid) by forming a gel-like substance that absorbs and contains the exudate, promoting a moist wound environment.
- Debridement: Cadexomer Iodine may assist in the debridement process, removing dead tissue and debris from the wound, which is essential for optimal healing.
Side Effects:
- Allergic Reactions: Some individuals may be sensitive or allergic to iodine. If redness, itching, or swelling occurs, discontinue use and seek medical advice.
- Thyroid Function: Prolonged use of iodine-containing products may affect thyroid function, especially in individuals with pre-existing thyroid conditions.
- Staining: Cadexomer Iodine may cause temporary staining of the skin and fabric. Avoid contact with clothing to prevent discoloration.
Usage Guidelines:
- Clean Wound: Clean the wound thoroughly before applying ADDEX OINTMENT.
- Application Frequency: Apply a thin layer of the ointment directly to the wound, usually once daily or as directed by a healthcare professional.
- Covering the Wound: In some cases, a secondary dressing may be applied over the ointment to protect the wound and prevent staining of clothes or bedding.
- Consult Healthcare Professional: If there is no improvement in the wound or if the condition worsens, consult a healthcare professional.
Drug Interactions:
- No significant drug interactions are commonly reported with topical Cadexomer Iodine. However, it’s important to inform your healthcare provider about all medications and treatments you are using.
As always, follow the specific usage instructions provided by your healthcare professional or as indicated on the product packaging. If you experience any unexpected side effects or have concerns about the product, consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
