Iodine - instructions for use, dose, side effects, contraindications

Antiseptic. The main active substance is molecular iodine, which has an antiseptic property. When applied to large areas of the skin iodine has a resorptive effect: actively affects the metabolism, enhances the processes of dissimilation, participates in the synthesis of thyroxine and triiodothyronine, has a proteolytic effect. Ethyl alcohol slows the excretion of iodine and reduces its irritating effect on the tissue. It has a bactericidal effect on both gram-positive and gram-negative flora (most active - streptococcal flora (Streptococcus spp.) and E. coli (Escherichia coli)), as well as pathogenic fungi and yeast. Staphylococcus is a more stable flora (Staphylococcus spp.), however, with prolonged use of the drug in 80% of cases, staphylococcal flora is suppressed. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) is stable. The drug is low toxicity.

Pharmacokinetics:

Upon contact with the skin, 30% turns into iodides, and the rest into active iodine. Partially absorbed. The absorbed part penetrates into tissues and organs, is selectively absorbed by the thyroid gland. It is excreted by the kidneys (mainly), intestines, sweat glands, with breast milk during lactation.

Indications:

Inflammatory and infectious diseases of the skin, abrasions, cuts, microtrauma, wounds; myositis, neuralgia, inflammatory infiltrates; treatment of the edges of wounds, skin before injections, punctures, catheterization.

Interaction:

Pharmaceutically incompatible with essential oils, solutions of ammonia, white sedimentary mercury (mercury amidochloride) - an explosive mixture is formed.

Special instructions:

Light and temperature above 40 ° C accelerate the decay of active iodine. The drug should have a dark brown color. Discoloration of the solution indicates the destruction of the complex with the transition of active iodine to iodide ion and a decrease in the effectiveness of the preparation.

Alkaline or acidic medium, the presence of fat, pus, blood weaken antiseptic activity.

Avoid contact with eyes.
