Intadine Lotion 100ml

Intadine Lotion 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, Intadine Lotion is not an antibiotic; it is an antiseptic and disinfectant used to heal wounds (minor cuts, scrapes, and burns).

Intadine Lotion 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.

Intadine Lotion 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.

Intadine Lotion 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 Intadine Lotion 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 Intadine Lotion 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, Intadine Lotion 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 Intadine Lotion 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 Intadine Lotion ingredients, have thyroid problems (like goiter or Hashimoto's disease), or are taking lithium, children before 12 years should avoid using Intadine Lotion unless advised by a doctor.
