How Wosan Ointment Works
Povidone-Iodine is a powerful antiseptic that slowly releases iodine to kill germs on the skin surface. Unlike some other antiseptics, it is generally well-tolerated on the skin and helps create a clean environment for natural healing to occur.
How to Use
- Clean the affected area thoroughly with water or a mild cleanser.
- Apply a thin layer of Wosan Ointment directly to the wound or skin infection.
- You may cover the area with a sterile bandage if necessary.
- Use 1–3 times daily or as directed by your healthcare professional.
Precautions
- For external use only.
- Do not use on large, deep, or puncture wounds without consulting a doctor.
- Avoid contact with eyes.
- If you have thyroid problems or are pregnant/breastfeeding, speak with a GoMed pharmacist before use.
- Stop use if irritation or redness develops.
