Patients may explore substitutes in the following scenarios:
Before you switch from Drez Spray to another medicine, here are some important points to keep in mind:
Same salt, different brands:
Most substitutes contain the same active ingredient - POVIDONE IODINE-5%W/W, but the fillers, coating, or manufacturing quality may vary slightly.
Consult your doctor first:
Even if the salt is the same, your doctor can confirm if the substitute is right for your condition, dosage, and health history.
Watch out for allergies or reactions:
Some people may react differently to certain brands due to inactive ingredients. If you notice any side effects, inform your doctor immediately.
Price ≠ effectiveness:
A lower-priced substitute doesn't mean it's less effective. Many generic medicines work just as well as branded ones.
Check the dosage form and strength:
Always match the substitute’s strength (e.g., 5mg, 10mg) and form (tablet, capsule, syrup) with what your doctor prescribed.

Drez Spray is primarily used to treat and prevent common skin infections. It is effective for skin infections in minor burns, lacerations (deep cuts in the skin), cuts, and abrasions (where the first layer of skin is scraped off).
Drez Spray works by inhibiting the growth of infection-causing microbes. As a small molecule, Iodine in Drez Spray can easily penetrate microorganisms and oxidise essential proteins, nucleotides, and fatty acids, leading to cell death.
Drez Spray is not recommended for use if you are undergoing any lithium therapy or treatment involving radioactive iodine. Drez Spray should not be used before or after radioiodine scintigraphy or radioiodine treatment of thyroid carcinoma. In such conditions, please consult your doctor before using Drez Spray.
Drez Spray may interfere with thyroid function tests due to the absorption of iodine. Please consult your doctor before starting Drez Spray if you have any history of thyroid problems. Drez Spray may also yield false-positive lab results, such as tests using toluidine or guaiac, to detect haemoglobin or glucose in the stool or urine.
Please consult your doctor if you are using any other topical medicines before starting Drez Spray. However, products containing an enzymatic component, alkali, mercury, silver, hydrogen peroxide, tannic acid, and taurolidine may interact with Drez Spray and should not be used simultaneously.
Drez Spray is typically used until the wound (minor cuts, scrapes, and burns) has healed. Treatment duration varies depending on the severity of the wound. Always follow the doctor's specific instructions, and they will determine the duration of usage.
No, Drez Spray is not an antibiotic; it is an antiseptic and disinfectant used to heal wounds (minor cuts, scrapes, and burns).
Drez Spray can be applied to open wounds as an effective antiseptic, killing bacteria, viruses, and fungi to prevent infections. However, use it cautiously, follow instructions carefully, and consult a doctor for large or deep wounds, as improper use can irritate.
Drez Spray can cause staining due to its iodine content. It may temporarily discolour the skin and permanently stain clothing. To minimise stains, wash affected clothing promptly, and the skin will fade with regular washing.
Drez Spray can be used for skin disinfection before surgery or injections, wound care for minor cuts and burns, gynaecological procedures, and first aid for initial wound cleaning.
To apply Drez Spray to an injury, first, clean the area with soap and water (to remove mud or external particles). Then, using a clean cotton swab or gauze pad, apply the solution to the wound, ensuring it covers the affected area. Allow it to dry naturally. If needed, cover the wound with a sterile bandage. Follow your doctor's advice on reapplication and avoid using it on large or deep wounds without consulting a medical professional.
Using Drez Spray may affect your thyroid, depending on the duration of use and individual thyroid health. Since it releases iodine, which influences thyroid hormones, it is crucial to inform your doctor about any thyroid issues before starting treatment. Your doctor will assess the risks and provide personalised guidance.
Yes, Drez Spray can be directly applied to the skin. It's often used to clean and disinfect minor wounds, cuts, and scrapes. Follow the instructions on the product label or consult your healthcare provider for proper usage.
Common side effects of Drez Spray are redness, peeling skin, dry skin, irritation at the application site, and inflamed skin. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
People who are allergic to Drez Spray ingredients, have thyroid problems (like goiter or Hashimoto's disease), or are taking lithium, children before 12 years should avoid using Drez Spray unless advised by a doctor.
Store your Drez Spray in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep it tightly closed in its original container and out of reach of children. Ensure it is stored at room temperature and not exposed to extreme temperatures.
