About Betadine (Povidone-Iodine)

Betadine is made with povidone-iodine, a well-established antiseptic ingredient that has been used for generations in wound care. Povidone acts as a carrier that slowly releases iodine, making it water-soluble, less irritating, and less likely to stain than iodine on its own.

How It Works

Povidone-iodine helps kill a broad range of microbes by disrupting essential structures within microorganisms, including cell walls and other vital cellular components. This helps stop infection before it develops.

Helping Protect Minor Wounds

Your skin is your body’s first defence against germs. When it is broken by a minor cut or abrasion, applying an antiseptic such as Betadine can help reduce the risk of infection and support cleaner healing.
