Betadine Ointment
Betadine Ointment is a topical antiseptic containing povidone-iodine, used externally for treating and preventing infections in minor cuts, scrapes, burns, and abrasions by killing bacteria, viruses, and fungi, working by releasing iodine to disrupt microbial cells for faster healing. It’s applied as a thin layer to clean skin, typically 1-2 times daily, and while generally safe, shouldn’t be used on large wounds, severe burns, or by those with iodine allergies or thyroid issues, requiring doctor consultation for pregnant/breastfeeding individuals or children
