IODOSORB◊ represents a family of highly effective anti-microbial products with additional absorbent and debriding properties.

IODOSORB◊ contains iodine bound into a starch matrix.  The Iodine is released on contact with the moisture in the wound and kills a broad spectrum of bacteria in as little as 30 minutes1.  The unique slow release mechanism means the product is effective for up to 3 days2.

The starch is capable of absorbing up to 6 times its own weight thus maintaining a moist wound healing environment.

IODOSORB◊ is available in 3 different presentations.

The Powder comes in both sachet and pot and was the first form of IODOSORB◊ to become available.  This is the most absorbent of the three.

The Dressing (also known as Iodoflex) is a highly flexible version, capable of being moulded to any shape of wound.

The Ointment also fits any shape and size of wound, minimising waste and allowing easy application.

IODOSORB◊is known as Cadex in Japan.

IODOSORB◊ and Iodoflex are indicated for chronic exuding wounds such as leg ulcers.
