Iodosorb Cadexomer Iodine Gel
IODOSORBâ„¢ Gel is a sterile formulation of Cadexomer Iodine. When applied to the wound, IODOSORBâ„¢ cleans it by absorbing fluids, removing exudate, slough and debris and forming a gel over the wound surface. As the gel absorbs exudate, iodine is released, killing bacteria and changing color as the iodine is used up.
Features:
A 3-in-1 mode of action kills bacteria, manages exudate, and debrides the wound bed.
Benefits:
