Description:

Povidone Iodine 5% w/w + Ornidazole 1% w/w is a powerful topical antimicrobial and antiseptic combination used to treat and prevent skin infections in wounds, cuts, burns, and surgical sites.

Povidone Iodine is a broad-spectrum antiseptic that kills bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa by releasing free iodine.
Ornidazole is an antiprotozoal and antibacterial agent effective against anaerobic bacteria and protozoa. It enhances the antimicrobial activity by targeting deep-seated bacterial infections.

Together, this combination offers dual action: surface-level disinfection (via iodine) and deep antimicrobial activity (via ornidazole), making it especially useful in infected or at-risk wounds and post-surgical sites.
