Pyodine Gel 20gm

Pyodine Gel 20gm is a gel made by Brookes Pharmaceutical Labs (pak) Ltd that contains Povidone-Iodine 20g, an iodine-based antiseptic. It is used for wound cleaning, skin disinfection, minor cuts and burns and sore throat gargle. Pack size: pyodine gel 20gm.

Uses of Pyodine Gel 20gm

Pyodine Gel 20gm is used to clean and disinfect the skin and to help prevent infection in minor cuts, grazes and small burns. Hospitals use it to prepare skin before surgery or injections. Gargle and mouthwash forms are used for mouth and throat infections and sore throat, and other forms are used for vaginal infections. It is applied to the affected area, not swallowed.

How Pyodine Gel 20gm works

Povidone-iodine slowly releases free iodine, which kills a broad range of germs, including bacteria, fungi and many viruses, by damaging their proteins and cell structures. The povidone carrier lets the iodine work for longer and makes it less irritating.

Possible side effects

Pyodine Gel 20gm is generally well tolerated. You might notice:

• Brown staining of skin or fabric
• Mild stinging on application
• Skin redness or irritation
• Mouth or throat irritation with the gargle

Stop using it and get medical advice if you develop blistering, swelling or a severe rash, or signs of a serious allergic reaction such as breathing difficulty.

Precautions and warnings

• For external use only; avoid the eyes and do not swallow the gargle.
• Avoid regular or prolonged use on large wounds or burns, as iodine can be absorbed into the body.
• Tell your doctor if you have thyroid disease, kidney problems or are taking lithium.
• Avoid regular use in pregnancy, while breastfeeding and in newborn babies unless a doctor advises, as iodine may affect the baby’s thyroid.
• Do not use it if you are allergic to iodine.

Storage

Store below 30°C and keep the cap tightly closed. For external use only; avoid contact with the eyes unless the product is made for eye use. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
