Pharmacodynamics:

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: it participates in the synthesis of thyroxine and triiodothyronine.

Has a bactericidal effect on both gram-positive and gram-negative flora (most active - on Streptococcus spp. and Escherichia coli), as well as pathogenic fungi and yeast. Most strains Staphylococcus spp. Stable, however, with prolonged use of the drug in 80% of cases, staphylococcal flora Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Pharmacokinetics:

Upon contact with the skin, it is converted into iodides by 30%, and the rest into active iodine. Partially absorbed.The absorbed part penetrates into tissues and organs, is selectively absorbed by the thyroid gland.
