Betadine Antiseptic Ointment provides topical antiseptic protection for minor wounds and common skin infections. This povidone-iodine antiseptic is formulated to support care of skin issues such as infections around the nails and tinea, and it helps reduce the risk of infection in cuts, abrasions, and minor burns. The convenient 65 g tube is designed for home use and family first aid kits.

• Active antiseptic agent: Povidone-iodine 10% w/v (equivalent to 1% available iodine) delivers broad-spectrum antiseptic action.
• Broad-spectrum protection: Bacterial, sporicidal and fungicidal properties support skin integrity and cleanliness.
• Target uses: Suitable for minor wounds, infections around nails, tinea, cuts, abrasions, and minor burns.
• Size and format: 65 g tube with easy-to-apply ointment texture for direct application.
• Application guidance: Apply a thin layer of undiluted ointment to the injured area using clean hands or a cotton applicator; cover with a sterile dressing if needed. When using near breaks in the skin, wipe away from the wound to avoid drawing debris in.
• Safety and precautions: Do not use if allergic to iodine or povidone; not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding; avoid applying over large areas or for extended periods (not more than 10% of body surface and not longer than 14 days unless advised by a clinician); discontinue if irritation occurs.

Benefits: This antiseptic ointment supports simple, targeted care for minor skin issues, helping reduce contamination risk while you address wounds.
